Kick off your festive season with The Cheltenham Trust at their much-loved annual Christmas Lights Switch On event at Pittville Pump Room.

You’ll be able to meet Santa and enjoy free family entertainment throughout the day with Party Peeps, including live music, a circus entertainer and face painting. Children can join in festive fun at Santa’s elves’ arts and crafts workstations, and the event will finish with the big switch-on and countdown with Santa.

Our festive food and drink fair will be open, serving mince pies, mulled wine, hot food and more.
