We’re kicking off a month of festive fun for all the family on the last weekend of November. There’ll be carols and mulled wine and mince pies galore. Join us for rides in the Market Place, a movie at The Station, night markets indoors and out, and
a very special Christmas Fair with stockings full of entertainment and good cheer. The Big Man himself will of course be in town. And it all starts with the switching on of the Christmas lights with the Richmond Duck Club on Friday evening.
