Frost Fair at Coalhouse Fort and Park

Jul 4th Coalhouse Fort and Park

Join in the festive fun and take in the seasonal, woodland atmosphere. There will be local craft stalls to browse, providing the perfect antidote to online shopping and busy high streets. The Epping Forest setting will become a traditional festive scene with seasonal refreshments available at the pop-up après-ski terrace, and there will be seasonal songs, storytelling, a woodland trail and a visit from the Frost Queen on her woodland sleigh. Children can have plenty of fun with the ‘activi-ski pass’, a £4 ticket providing 5 seasonal craft activities. Otherwise, admission is free.
