Late-night shopping accompanied by the voices of school choirs will be the backdrop to the Christmas lights being switched on in Ilminster on Friday, November 22.
The event – organised by Ilminster Chamber of Commerce and Ilminster Christmas Lights with the support of the town council – will offer food and drink, music, shopping and more, before the lights are turned on at around 7 pm. From 4 pm, the town centre will be shut to traffic to allow crowds to gather in the streets, enjoying food and drink, as well as many shops opening into the evening.
A parade at around 6.20 pm will make its way through town, along Silver Street, through the Market Square and up East Street, featuring the Ilminster Diamond Majorettes, Ilminster Icons & Ilminster Illuminations, as well as a lantern parade and Father Christmas in his sleigh. The Ilminster Warehouse Theatre Panto cast will also be out, while on stage, DJ Ginge the MC will be joined by members of the Christmas Lights Committee, who will press the plunger to illuminate the town.
