Now that Halloween has passed, and Bonfire Night will soon do the same, we can finally turn our full focus toward Christmas.  And what better way to get in the mood for it than The Ideal Home Show at Christmas which comes to both London and Manchester this month.

The Ideal Home Show was first organised all the way back in 1908, however the Christmas event was first opened in 2011 and became an instant hit.

Food and drink plays a key part, as do home décor, fashion and beauty as well as plenty of Christmas homeware ideas for the Christmas season.  There are some celebrity chefs and bakers on-hand to, with the likes of Gino Di Campo and Great British Bake Off 2016 winner, Candice, making appearances.

The Christmas Theatre is sure to be the main attraction at the event, with the timetable for both shows sounding fantastic.  Manchester will see a packed schedule of shows inside the theatre, including festive decorations on a budget, Christmas table centre piece demonstrations as well as wine events.

The Great British Bake Off features prominently, with Candice joined by fellow stars Selasi and Jane throughout the course of the four days.  Check out the timetable on the show website for more information on specific timings.

You can also grab some Christmassy food on the day, with the Duke’s Head Christmas pub and Greg Wallace’s Christmas Restaurant both serving food and drink throughout.  We love the sound of the Festive Afternoon Tea!

The event takes place in Manchester from 10-13 November, while the London event happens at London Olympia 23-27 November.
