There was carol singing, a variety of stalls, Santa’s Grotto, plus complementary festive punch and mince pies at the event in aid of Ceara School and the Gateway Theatre Group. Fairgoers also enjoyed a reminder the box office is now open for the Portadown pantomime, Mother Goose.
Photographer Tony Hendron took this selection of photos from the very well-attended celebration.
