GALLERY – Town was bustling for fun festive fair

Santa was working flat out when he visited Holbeach at the weekend for the town’s Christmas Fair.

Having borrowed some room at Jamie’s Carpets, Santa gave out more than 500 wrapped gifts.

There was quite a queue to see the big man, and Jamie said it was an ‘unreal turnout’.

The town was bustling with families when some 50 food, craft and charity stalls were set up. There was also a giant snow globe, and Rodeo Reindeer for the brave!

The church also hosted stalls and Holbeach Town Band provided music in the afternoon.

Children were invited to take part in the traditional lantern parade followed by Carols around the Christmas Tree.
