Christmas festivities got underway at Castle Gardens last week as the park was lit up for the season.

Families could wander through the park to admire the lights, whilst playing some fun games browsing the stalls and enjoying some tasty treats.

There were also street entertainers to add to the atmosphere. Pictured is the Shanks family enjoying the event.
