The Christmas Trails event will be taking place all over Chinatown this year, now that the Revitalisation Project is finished in its entirety. The new lights will be dazzling in Chinatown and our town will be lit up in festive style, to celebrate this special time of year.
Santa and his elves will be visiting Chinatown once again and there are lots of activities to keep the kids entertained. The adults haven’t been forgotten either - there is music from local performers to enjoy, food and drinks, and Christmas shopping galore.
