what's happening on the day

Yes Folks Santa Claus IS coming to town! Santa’s sleigh is back! For Santa & his Newport Rotary Lite elves will be touring the streets of Newport, Edgmond, Tibberton & Lilleshall. Santa is hoping to see as many children, families & elderly people as he can and bring Christmas cheer to as many people as possible. Money raised will go to local causes & projects. Here's Santa's schedule below, but please do follow the page for any late changes due to weather or road conditions etc.

Please come out to see him, start the month with some Christmas cheer – smiley faces guaranteed!  Sing along to the music, get some Santa selfies and (if you can) give some money towards local good causes and Rotary Projects. 

There are static sleigh positions where everyone can come to see Santa.
