InExeter Invites You to Celebrate 'Indie ExeMas' this Christmas Season
As Christmas approaches, the city of Exeter is brimming with festive cheer, and InExeter, the Business Improvement District for Exeter, is excited to extend an invitation to all residents and visitors to experience an 'Indie ExeMas' this year.
This Christmas, we encourage everyone to step out into the heart of Exeter and explore the array of offerings from our independent businesses. 'Indie ExeMas' is not just a shopping spree; it's an opportunity to support local entrepreneurs, discover unique, handcrafted, and locally sourced gifts, and immerse yourself in the spirit of the season.
Nicola Wheeler, CEO of InExeter, encourages everyone to participate in this heartwarming initiative, saying, "This Christmas season, we invite you to have an 'Indie ExeMas' and explore all that Indie Exeter has to offer. In doing so, you'll not only enjoy a memorable Christmas but also contribute to our beautiful city. Exeter has something special in store for everyone."
