Antrim Town is the place to be on Thursday 24 November from 5.30pm as the Christmas lights switch on ceremony, organised in conjunction with Castle Mall, promises to start the yuletide season with festive fun and entertainment!

The action kicks off in Market Square with musical entertainment hosted by Sonya Mac from Q Radio, who will entertain with hits both old and new. Of course the evening wouldn’t be complete without a visit from Santa who will make his grand entrance with Snow White at 7pm.

One of the highlights is sure to be the special children’s prize draw with great prizes to be won, including a WowWee Chip Interactive Robot Dog. If you haven’t already got your prize draw slip, they are available from the Old Courthouse and can also be picked up at the event.  A spectacular fireworks display at 7.30pm will round off what will undoubtedly be a perfect festive evening.
