Winter wonderland festival is the best

-

As the old adage goes, I think it’s fair to say that Christmas in Paisley really is the most wonderful time of the year.

We had the spectacula­r fireworks display at the beginning of November to help get us into the winter spirit, then the Christmas lights switch-on starting the countdown to December.

And, now Paisley First’s WinterFest is up and running , a Christmas buzz has definitely settled over the town.

Whether you want to brave the cold and have a go on the ice rink at Central Way, browse the continenta­lstyle market on Gilmour Street and High Street, or enjoy the rides, games and attraction­s throughout Paisley town centre, there is definitely something for everyone in the family.

Christmas is, after all, about spending time with friends and family, and I love seeing our town come alive at this time of year with something fun to do for kids from one to 92.

While Paisley has come alive with festivitie­s,Thursday also marks the 2021 announceme­nt – and I can’t think of a better time for our town to be on the national stage.

This announceme­nt could be one of the biggest and most important in our town’s history, and I am confident that a positive result will only see more good things to come for Paisley – and why wouldn’t we want another reason to celebrate over the holiday season?
