The Richmond Riverside Christmas light event is taking place this Saturday 25 November at 4pm.

There will be special guest appearances by the Deputy Mayor and characters from the Richmond Theatre Pantomime, Dick Whittington.

Santa might also make a surprise visit!

As well as the switch-on event there will be a Christmas market all weekend along Richmond Riverside with over 35 stalls featuring a beautiful selection of independent businesses, including health & beauty, jewellery, fashion, home & leisure, art, and an array of mouthwatering food and drinks.

Whittaker Avenue will transform into a magical Winter Wonderland, complete with enchanting Christmas elf workshops and perfect selfie spots, including a whimsical sleigh.
