Our friends at Fareham Borough Council have asked us to share the following..
🎅🎄✨ Fareham’s Christmas Lights Switch-On will take place on Saturday 21 November, from 10am to 7pm, in Fareham Town Centre, with the lights being switched on at 5.30pm under the bandstand by the Mayor, alongside Fareham Live’s Jack and the Beanstalk pantomime characters.
There will be something for everyone to enjoy, including funfair rides, festive gift stalls, walkabout performers, and a fantastic selection of festive food and drink.
A wide range of free children's activities will also be available throughout the day outside and in Fareham Shopping Centre, including bubble workshops and shows, graffiti crafts, Christingle making, Lego building, mini golf, and much more. We're also delighted to confirm that Father Christmas will be making a special appearance. Visitors can also enjoy live entertainment on both the Community Stage and the Buskin' Blitzen Stage, featuring performances from local acts.
Further event details will be available over the coming weeks at www.fareham.gov.uk/christmaslights
