Laura Jandac, who owns The Upholster with husband Milos, said: “We’re really excited. The Christmas Street Party goes back a very long time. It’s a tradition in Midhurst and really signals the start of the Christmas shenanigans here. The atmosphere is lovely and there seems to be more of a buzz around it each year.
“It’s always held on the first Friday of December and it’s nice and early this year. Midhurst Town Council organises it and the whole community gets involved. We open late and most shops provide mulled wine and mince pies, there’s music in Market Square.
“Because Christmas was such a write-off last year, there’s a feeling that everyone is going to do all they can to make up for it.”
