Frost Fairs have a storied history in London. Between 1605 and 1814 the surface of the River Thames froze over 24 times, so locals took to the ice creating ‘Frost Fairs’ with markets, amusement, food, drink, games and general revelry. Global warming might have scuppered the frozen river bit, but Cody Dock is recreating the roistering atmosphere (minus all the ice) with this day-long shindig. Grab a glass of steaming mulled wine and wonder through markets packed with gifts made by local makers, join winter-themes workshops and listen to live music.
