The switch on event took place on William Street. The street came alive with a range of entertainment, including performances from Stewartstown Panto, Tullylagan Pipe Band and Band of Gold, as well as a fantastic Showstoppers Parade.
There was also plenty of on-street entertainment including face painting, The Gaming Bus, Art Cart and lots of character walkabouts for all those Christmas selfies.
