Oxford’s Christmas Light Festival - What’s on in Oxford and across Oxfordshire this November

What to do in Oxford and across Oxfordshire in November.

Hello and welcome to your invaluable guide to what’s on in Oxford and across Oxfordshire this November.

It’s easy to forget that there’s usually plenty to do in Oxford and across Oxfordshire in November – right after the October Half-term and leading up to when the Christmas festive season kicks off in earnest.

From bonfires and fireworks events to Christmas light switch-on events across our towns and villages, this is also the month when Christmas markets and the most British of all traditions – pantomimes – kick off.

We’re sure you know by now that this is a curated list of the things to do in Oxford and across Oxfordshire this Month. You’ll find more events in Oxford and across Oxfordshire in the “What’s on section” of the website. 

There’s also a limited number of unmissable events beyond the county that would make for a great day out.
