With a Christmas Market, Christmas Lights switch-on and even a Christmas Ice Rink - if you want to feel fantastically festive, Canterbury has got you covered.

Christmas Lights switch-on

The Canterbury Christmas Lights switch-on event takes place on Friday, November 15, in St George's Street between 4pm and 6pm.

There will also be Christmas Market on the same day - although only in St George's Street - with free park and ride from 3pm. The full market launches on Friday, November 22 (see more details below).

On November 15, there will be a food hall with local makers selling delicious delicacies and hand-crafted gifts. There will also be a helter skelter and giant snow globe to enjoy.

The Christmas Lights will be illuminated in glorious festive colours by kmfm breakfast presenters Garry and Laura between 5.30pm and 5.50pm, along with the cast of the Marlowe's Mother Goose panto.

The market will stay open after the switch-on, with mulled wine on offer.
