The Sunset Fair is a great place to do a spot of Christmas shopping, with plenty of local handicrafts and products to choose from. Wander around the stalls, grab a bite to eat, a cold beer.... the most relaxed way to find original gifts for friends. Sunset Fair Patron, Kirsty Sword-Gusmao paid a visit with her family and enjoyed a "katupa" dinner.
