Stone Town Council has announced that this year’s Christmas light switch-on will be on Thursday the 21st of November.
Entertainment will start at 5.00 pm, with a range of performances planned leading up to the switch-on of the lights at 7.00 pm. There will also be funfair rides and a variety of stalls.
Councillor Jill Hood, Chairman of the Council’s Tourism and Town Promotion Sub-Committee, said:
“The Switch On is an extremely popular event, so please put the date in your diary and make sure you get into town early to claim a good spot!”
A limited number of stalls will be available at the event. For businesses, a charge of £36.00 (incl. VAT) will be made (tables can also be hired at an additional cost of £7.00 each incl. VAT), though registered charities who benefit Stone will not be charged.
Each pitch will be 2.25 metres x 3 metres and covered and illuminated. If you would like to be considered for a stall or require any further information, please contact Stone Town Council on 01785 619740 or by email at clerk@stonetowncouncil.gov.uk. The deadline for completed applications is Friday, November 1st, 2024.
The town council has also extended its thanks to Stafford Borough Council’s High Street Boost campaign and the UK Government, which have provided funding to support this year’s Christmas Lights Switch On event.
