Free Face Painting

If your little ones love having their face painted, head to Newmarket's Station Square on Saturday 6th December, Saturday 13th December and Saturday 20th December for free face painting!
From 11am - 2pm, our incredible artists will be at Studio 1 Station Square, near to the Newmarket Train Station to bring a little sparkle and festive spirit to the kids faces.
