POWERSCOURT CHRISTMAS MARKET Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow
Powerscourt is one of Europe's great treasures and Ireland's most famous House & Gardens. Gracing the Wicklow mountains, 20km from Dublin city centre, Powerscourt is a heritage property with a surprising difference. The house was gutted by fire in 1974 but recently has been reborn as an exceptional tourist destination.

The Fresh n' Local Market is situated in a prime position in the main car park, just opposite the Garden centre. There are lots of Christmas stalls, including nuts, Bronze Christmas turkeys, hams, olives, farmhouse cheeses, cakes, plum puddings, etc. There is live traditional music at week ends.

Santa Claus arrives Saturday December the 6th at 10.30 and will be in the house. He will be there every weekend 9.30 to 5.30 & Weekdays between noon to 5pm.

Throughout the Christmas period there will be live Powerscourt Estate deer on show: Rudolf, Prancer and Dancer, for all the children to meet the reindeer.
