It will take place on Saturday, 3 December and free parking will be provided in Tewkesbury and Winchcombe council-run car parks on that day.
Winchcombe shoppers can also take advantage of a day’s free parking on Christmas Eve (Saturday, 24 December) to help local businesses with trade and shoppers with their last-minute search for the perfect gifts.
Tewkesbury Borough Council’s lead member for economic development and promotion, Rob Bird said: “Our free parking days give practical support to help small businesses and town centres in the borough to prosper.
