From 2.00 pm, the streets of the town centre will come alive with stalls selling crafts, hobby items and Christmas decorations – perfect for anyone looking for an original gift or a small, handmade token.

In the afternoon, organised by the Pro Loco, there’ll be a sweet break with snacks and mulled wine.
