Chasetown-based company, Tara Group, will be hosting an evening of free entertainment and festive fun on Thursday 28th November at Chasetown High Street’s Christmas lights switch-on.
The event, which returns for its sixth year, is hosted and fully funded by the family-owned Tara Group. Between 6pm-8pm, the local community is invited to join the countdown to switch on the village’s Christmas lights, enjoy complimentary refreshments including mulled wine and mince pies, and visit market stalls hosted by local and independent businesses.
Younger attendees will also be able to visit Santa’s Grotto as well as enjoy free fairground rides, while also being able to meet and greet ‘Frozen’-themed characters. Local councillor, Darren Ennis, will join Charmaine Sweeney, organiser of the event and daughter of Noel Sweeney, the late founder of the Tara Group, to switch on the lights at 6pm.
