Christmas officially begins in Dunstable on Friday 27 November with the much-loved Christmas Carols and Torchlight Procession, bringing the community together on The Square to mark the start of the festive season.From 7pm, school choirs from across Dunstable will fill The Square with the sound of Christmas carols, accompanied by the Dunstable Salvation Army Band. New for 2026, a large screen will be in place on The Square, giving visitors a clearer view of the performances and all the key moments of the evening.
Look out for a special visit from Father Christmas as well as the Grove Theatre Panto cast of Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs, watch the switch on of Dunstable’s Christmas Tree, followed by a spectacular light show to round off the evening.
There will be plenty to enjoy beyond The Square too, with food and drink stalls along Middle Row and Priory House Gift Shop open until late, serving hot food, drinks and offering a range of Christmas gifts. So, wrap up warm, bring your friends or family,
and join us on The Square as Dunstable comes together to welcome the start of Christmas.
