The festive lights switch-on and seasonal Christmas Market will take place in Grantham on Sunday 4th December.
Centred around the Market Place Christmas Tree, glittering stalls will be open alongside the town’s regular businesses to offer another chance to stock up on gifts and enjoy traditional wintry refreshments.
There is free parking at SKDC-operated car parks on the day, so grab some tinsel, jingle some bells and bring the family and enjoy an event to remember, from 11am to 5pm.
A spokesperson for South Kesteven District Council said: “We are pleased and proud to be able to host this popular annual Christmas Market and dazzling light display once again this year, and hope that residents and visitors will come along to support our town’s traders.
“Visitors to Grantham will enjoy a light display focused on the Market Place, High Street and Guildhall Street.
“We are installing a reduced number of lights this year, and these will be illuminated for a reduced number of hours each day.
“We remain conscious of the need to save energy and costs but anticipate that the town centre lights, and our seasonal market, will provide some much-needed festive cheer for our residents.
“It gives the perfect excuse to pop into town to support the unique Christmas offering from Grantham’s retailers, bars, restaurants and other traders who rely on your custom in what remains a very challenging time.
“We have some great things planned for the Christmas Market event, which is sure to be fun for all the family; further details will be released in the coming weeks. The traditional Nativity scene and manger will also be in place at St Peter’s Hill Green as usual.”
Further announcements on attractions, entertainment, activities and visiting artisan market traders on 4th December will be announced in due course.
