Annual fun fair brings Christmas spirit back to Leicester

By Denisia Murat

The Christmas fun fair has already begun in Leicester, featuring numerous entertainments for all categories of gender and age.

The event is incorporating the Christmas spirit in the local area and brings joy to all people. 

The attractions have been brought to the city centre by showman Billy Bates and Sons, including various stalls and rides. 

Brandon Issitt, a member of the team, described the event as being very diverse and inclusive. 

He said: ”Everybody is welcome here, we have rides for all age groups. It gives that Christmas spirit.” 

The fun fair also helps and contributes to the local economy, so it is a great place for people to come with their family to try various activities. 

Brandon added: “It definitely increases the revenue. We like to be a benefit to the city.” 

Billy Bates and Sons are also active on TikTok, having an account with 27.1k followers called BBfunfair, where people can access and find more about the Christmas fun fair. 

The price range is quite modest and accessible to all. All rides operate on a token system and each ride requires more or less tokens depending on which one you choose. Each token costs £1.
