Put it in your diary now !
Father Christmas will be listening to those Christmas wishes on Starlight Sunday where you may visit him in his winter workshop from 2pm. Drawn by two Suffolk Punches his carriage certainly turns heads as he rides into town. You too may take a ride with these magnificent beasts throughout the afternoon. For the more intrepid, there is a torch lit walk with an Exmoor Park Ranger. Please wear appropriate footwear and warm clothes. Mince pies and hip flasks are optional but you will need a torch! Enjoy the street entertainment as you stroll from shop to shop. Fancy a warm? Pop into one of the pubs or tearooms for some sumptuous figgy pudding! The Carol singing around the large lit tree in Bank Square is always very popular. Once again we will end the evening with a finale of white fireworks. With the church providing a dramatic backdrop, this is a stunning display. An exhibition of Nativity scenes owned by local families is always a delight and will be on show in the Town Hall during the weekend.
