Photo Gallery: Fenwick Christmas Window, Newcastle

Posted by Helen Nugent | Dec 21, 2019 | Enterprise

Ah, the Fenwick Christmas window in Newcastle.

It’s one of the North East’s most eagerly anticipated festive moments, as well as being one of the largest Christmas showcases in Europe. Never mind the displays in Selfridges or Harrods, Fenwick’s window is the real herald of Christmas. This year the theme is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Check it out in our picture gallery.
