Londons windows are a fantastic show every year at Christmas and Selfridges continues to pull out the stops at Christmas in 2023! Here are the Showtime Selfridges Oxford Street Christmas Windows of 2023.

Ever since I can remember my mum and my Nan would take me in to London to see the Christmas lights and the shop windows. From Hamley’s toy store down to Selfridges, normally followed by a visit to Santa’s Grotto in Selfridges itself. This year you can experience the spectacular new Showtime Selfridges Christmas Windows. A Festive and Glamorous Extravaganza which started on the 2nd of November 2023.
