We had positive feedback from our "early bird session" for Santa's Grotto in 2023 so we will will be offering this again on Sunday 24th November for Rendlesham's youngest residents. This is to ensure no matter how big or small little ones are able to have a magical time with Santa. There is no need to book - but please bare in mind this session will be from 13:30 - 16:00 and the queue will be managed to ensure Santa is available to turn on the Christmas lights at 16:30. Santa's Grotto will resume for the later session from 16:35. Santa's grotto is free to attend.
Christmas Market will kick off at 14:30 – we will have an array of local businesses including Jo's Children Books Simply Cakes Stephen Sadler (Wood) Bix Bricks (Lego) Kat's creations If It's Creations. Take the pressure away from that last minute Christmas shopping come along have a shop and support local!
Chloe Kinrade School of Dance and her fabulous tiny dancers will be returning for another year. The performance will begin at 15:15 in the square – a note for parents/guardians of dancers involved in the show a meeting point prior to the show has been arranged for the children so please await instructions from Miss Chloe. We cannot wait to see what you’ve been practising for the village.

Father Christmas will be flying into Rendlesham all the way from the north pole to join us for a special guest appearance before making his way to plunge Rendlesham in to a bright mass of Christmas lights!
The light switch on will be at 16:30 so make sure you have a spot in the square to welcome Christmas 2024 & Santa to Rendlesham.
