Come along to the Market Place on Friday 1st December 2017 to help us light it up with ‘1000 Christmas Lights’.
The festivities begin at 5pm and there is an exciting lineup, including Belle and friends from Beauty & The Beast, the Police Interceptors, Carols, Advent Windows, Children’s rides and a special visit from Santa; there really is something for everyone.
Be sure to charge your mobile phones and have your torch app at the ready, as our photographer will be on the Town Hall Balcony, so hold your lights and lanterns up high!
Feel free to download or print a copy of the Christmas Flyer.
Children’s rides, a selection of food vendors and Santa’s Grotto inside the Town Hall will be open from 1pm.
The words to the ‘Light 1000 Christmas Lights’ carol are below:
Chorus:
Now light one thousand Christmas lights
On dark earth here tonight
One thousand, thousand also shine
To make the dark sky bright
(Repeat chorus)
Oh, once when skies were starry bright
In a stable cold and bare
Sweet Mary bore a son that night
A child both kind and fair
She named her little son Jesus
Sweet Mary meek and mild
She cradled and she rocked Him too
That little tiny child
(Chorus)
He came to bring us love and light
To bring us peace on earth
So let your candles shine to night
And sing with joy and mirth
(Chorus)
