What (from 2022): Surrey's sparkling (and totally free!) kick-off to the festive season is stuffed like a bulging Christmas stocking with amazing family-friendly fun. Expect a full menu of live music and performers on two stages, including a gospel choir, a Motown tribute act, Celtic festive tunes and even some delightful Nutcracker dancing from the Royal City Youth Ballet. There will also be a tempting array of artisan vendors to help with your Christmas gift shopping––plus shimmering Yuletide illuminations, ticket-free fairground rides, a dozen or so tasty food trucks and gratis photos with the Jolly Old Elf himself. A great way to launch your feel-good holiday celebrations, the highlight will be the 6:30pm switch-on of the city's official 60-foot Christmas tree.
