Kingston's annual Christmas Market could be returning to the Ancient Market Place on 13 November despite Seventa Events applying to the council to create a new Christmas Market, Apres Kingston, earlier this year.

Seventa's proposals included "a modern alternative to traditional Christmas markets, designed to appeal to all ages" on the lawns of All Saints Church.

The full application outline says: ""Continued operation of the seasonal 'Kingston Christmas Market' within the Ancient Market Place. Temporary permission to allow the Christmas Market comprising of 20 wooden market stalls, 1 no central pyramid bar, along with associated furniture, stage and temporary toilet block. Installation of a 7m Christmas Tree."

Entertainment will include live music, Christmas choirs, local bands and an open-mic night. Food options will include continental bratwurst to hog roasts and street food from across the globe.

Keston Events hopes to run the market from 13 November – 28 December and estimates that the whole project will cost up to £2m.

Keston's application is stell pending consideration from the council.
