With the towns of the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough lighting up for Christmas 2024, we took a look through our photographic archives at some events in the past.

The festive events enjoyed various parades, visitors and performers but each one always features the main man – Santa Claus!

See if you can recognise anyone...
