Santa Funday, hold the date

On Saturday 28th November from 2pm-6pm, Santa Funday is set to bring a generous helping of Christmas magic to the High Street again this year, with festive fun, family-friendly activities and plenty of sparkle for little elves, grown-up elves and everyone in between.

As the countdown to Christmas begins, Santa Funday promises to be a joyful celebration filled with sleigh bells, smiles and seasonal surprises. We look forward to an uplifting day of Christmas music, games, tasty treats and festive cheer, all wrapped up in a warm community atmosphere. Whether you are coming along with children, grandchildren, friends or neighbours, Santa Funday will bring people together and create special moments that make the festive season so memorable.

Highlights of the day will be a magical visit from Santa himself, as well as face painting, fairground rides, live music, festive food & drinks. Prizes to be won in our Elf dash & best dressed elf competition! There will also be plenty of artisan & craft stalls so you can tick off some (or all) of your Christmas shopping list!
