CHRISTMAS MARKET

No sooner has the trick or treating finished up, then our focus changes to the next big holiday; Christmas. In past years, there was a tradition of a Christmas Market in Julianstow­n community centre. This proved to be a really popular event in the community and a fantastic get together for all the people of Julianstow­n and the surroundin­g villages, united by the sweet treats, carol singing, aroma of mulled wine and special crafts you only get in a Christmas Market. Then suddenly, the Christmas market stopped. Well, 2017 sees the return of the Julianstow­n Christmas Market, and this year the event promises to re-establish the tradition and truly get the Christmas spirit flowing in the community. The date is Sunday 19th November in Julianstow­n Community Centre from 12noon until 5p.m.
