The Christmas Lights team are busy getting the town ready to sparkle, Santa and Mrs Claus are gearing up to greet everyone and the Town Team have been busy bees and are super excited to invite everyone to “Christmas in Strokestown” 2021.
What better way to start the festive season than joining us for a fun-filled weekend on 3rd, 4th and 5th December? Whether you’re a Scrooge or a Christmas Elf, the Christmas Market is the place to grab some pressies and get yourself in a merry mood!
This year the Christmas Market committee have pulled out all the stops for your enjoyment with over 50 vendors across the weekend. With a range of festive goods of all descriptions and gifts with a difference, from knitted goods to hand made toys and seasonal decorations, ceramics, beauty products, candles, soaps and jewellery to name just a few of the goods on offer. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you will not be disappointed with the tempting treats at the stalls. You can enjoy a glass of mulled wine or maybe a cup of hot chocolate and a crepe as you stroll through the market chalets and gazebos on Bawn street.
The ”gig rig” will host the live entertainment, and this year’s acts will not disappoint. There is a fantastic line up of amazing singers, bands and talent all waiting to put a smile on your faces! And not to forget the little one’s – there will be a carnival carousel, street entertainers, face painting and a few more surprises along the way!
Strokestown Market committee would like to sincerely thank the businesses and residents of Bawn Street, without whose co-operation the Market would not be possible. Also, the Strokestown Christmas Lights committee, a great team of volunteers who have put in countless hours in the rain and cold getting the town ready for Santa’s visit. The team have been commended on how well the town looked last year and this is something the committee hope to build on over the next few years by way of fundraising - each year more lights and features will be added with the support of monies raised. A massive thank you goes out to everyone who has supported this cause so far.
The Christmas Market Committee also wish to thank Roscommon County Council and the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sports and Media (as part of the Live Performance Support Scheme).
So what’s left to say? Grab your hat and scarf – pack the family in the car and come visit Strokestown, you won’t be disappointed.
