If you accidentally arrive in early November, don’t panic! You’ll find Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square already looking festive, plus the department stores have their lights on. But the full market experience? It’ll be a ghost town until the second week of November. You might get a stray carousel operator looking at you with pity.
