A Nottinghamshire council has revealed when Christmas lights in three towns will be turned on. Ashfield District Council has released the dates of this year's Christmas lights events in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Hucknall in November.
All three events will feature funfair rides, an entertainment stage featuring performances from local talent, free face painting, and Santa and his sleigh. Three Christmas markets will fill the town centres with food and drink, as well as local businesses selling gifts and crafts.
The events will finish with the official light switch on of the Christmas trees and feature 3D lighting. Sutton-in-Ashfield's event will take place on Thursday, November 17 from 4.30pm to 7.30pm at Market Place Car Park, Sutton-in-Ashfield.
