The focal point is set to be the Harris Quarter, which is the cultural heart of Preston. Events will begin to get underway towards the end of next month, with the Christmas Lights Switch-On. The location for it will be the Flag Market and a number of live performers and celebrity guests are promised. This will make for an ideal way for local families to get into the Christmas spirit.
One of the big highpoints of the festivities this year is sure to be Preston on Ice in Association with SpudBros. This will feature a sizeable ice-skating rink, fairground rides, Father Christmas and stalls offering hot food and drinks. Once again, the Flag Market will be the setting for it.
Then, there is the annual festive pantomime for people to look forward to. This year, it will be Cinderella, and the venue will be the Guild Lounge. Local venues sometimes use poster printing by Preston shops when they need Posters to advertise their shows.
Councillor Hindle told Central Radio:
“We’re really looking forward to bringing Christmas to Preston this year. There’s a fantastic mix of experiences on offer, and we want to give people plenty of reasons to visit Preston.”
The lights switch-on will take place on 21 November, while the other events will run throughout December.Get a Free Quote for Posters
