2018
We’re pleased to announce that Blantyre’s Festive Event 2018 is now announced for:

SUNDAY 25th November 2018 from midday until 5pm
FREE Entry for all the family!

We’re back with tradition and returning to the STONEFIELD PUBLIC PARK as a venue this year. We have a whole afternoon of usual Festive fun planned, including Christmas Markets, music and entertainment, Santas Grotto, Hot and Cold Food, the fairground and as usual, entry will be FREE!

The venue at the Public Park offers a secure ground, with indoor cafe and toilets already there and our committee feels we can give the whole area more of a Christmas feel, addressing all your feedback last year. The paths are tarmac and much cleaner too! The Christmas Lights switch on near the tree at Glasgow Road will switch on the lights at 4.15pm, including some new promised lights too!

SO, come along! Bring all the family! We’ll have LOADS of activities for the kids, as well as snow machines (which are working this year!), and LOADS more fun! See you there!

Note: The grounds of David Livingstone Centre, whilst great for events are being renovated this year. It makes sense for the Christmas event to return to its original spot at Glasgow Road near the Sports centre where the Christmas lights and tree are.
