The Christmas spirit is alive and well in Wexford town and Santa Claus will make a final public appearance before setting out from the North Pole on Christmas Eve at the Carols in the Square celebration on Friday evening.
The illuminated Christmas tree will be the centrepiece for the festive event featuring the Wexford Fife and Drum Band, and a collection of fantastic local musicians including Daithi Kavanagh and Rory Kavanagh, Martina Byrne, Anthony ‘the Virginian’ Bates, Ibar Quirke, Imelda Kehoe and many more, playing festive music and singing Christmas Carols in St Peter’s Square, Wexford, tomorrow night from 6pm.
Santa Claus will be in the Square and there will be hot chocolates to keep you warm!
There will be a collection for Wexford People Helping People’s Christmas Appeal, helping them to continue to help those in need.
For those who can’t make it tomorrow night, collection buckets will be set up in Red Books all day tomorrow.
Remember, 6pm start in St. Peter’s Square and the message is ALL ARE WELCOME. Tell your friends and bring them along for a truly ‘ding-dong merrily on high’ festive occasion.
