Christmas Market to return to Hucknall

Hucknall's 'Christmas festival' will return this year after being put on hold last year due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

The event, hosted by Ashfield District Council, will take place on the Market Place on Wednesday 1 December from 4pm until 8pm.

It will feature a Christmas market selling hot food, drinks, crafts, and gifts. There will also be fun fair rides.

The festival will conclude with the official lights switch on.

Similar events will also take place in Kirkby and Sutton the week before the one in Hucknall.

Councillor Rachel Madden, Cabinet Member for Leisure, Health & Wellbeing said: "The Christmas Festivals are a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together and celebrate. After not being able to host them last year, we really hope to see as many residents as possible coming and enjoying the events.

"We are proud that we are able to hold these popular events in our town centres once again. It will be fantastic to see all three towns buzzing with visitors and Christmas spirit. We have held some wonderful events this year and these three festivals will finish the year off with a bang."
