Tyrone

Treat your kids this Christmas with a visit to Santa’s Toy Emporium in Moygashel this year. Kris Kringle Enterprises has taken up residence at Unit 2 The Linen Green, and needs your help to get ready for Christmas.  All you have to do to be part of this clever Christmas conspiracy is to register your child to become a VIE (that’s a Very Important Elf) in the Toy Emporium – at least that’s what they’ll think, but what you’ll actually be doing is booking them for a wonderful Christmas experience which they’ll never forget. 19th to 23rd November.

Derry

Christmas is coming to Limavady this Saturday when the Mayor will be looking for your help to switch the lights on and join in all the fun in the build up to Santa’s arrival. The fun begins at 6.00pm and the lights will be switched on at 7.00pm.  Lots of entertainment for the whole family with surprises galore! Start your Christmas countdown here!
