The countdown to the much-waited Christmas festival is on, as the names of traders and a special celebrity guest at the market were revealed.
The Amersham Christmas Festival and lights switch-on celebration is right around the corner.
The 2022 edition of the festival will be the biggest yet, with more than 60 market traders and charities due to take over the Sycamore Road High Street on Saturday December 3 from 10am to 5pm.
Channel 4's Taskmaster celebrity Alex Horne will be helping Santa to draw the raffle before switching on the Christmas lights.

This year’s festival was “a real community effort,” chairwoman of the Amersham Action Group Jane Barnes said.
While a free Santa’s Grotto and funfair will keep the children entertained, adults can browse the selection of artists, producers, traders and charity stalls.
These are some of the names you can expect to see across the outdoor market and charity stalls inside St Michael’s Church on Sycamore Road.
