There will be plenty of entertainment on stage throughout the day including performances from local performing troupes such as Uplift Performing Arts, Royal Tara Dance Academy, live music and more. From festive characters, face painting, Christmas carnival games, and some funfair rides, there is lots of fun for the family.
