Saturday is the annual Christmas in Coalville event in the town centre.

The newly-refurbished Marlborough Square will be at the heart of the festive celebrations - but there will also be events taking place in the Belvoir Shopping Centre and Needham's Walk.

This community event promises a day filled with holiday cheer, family-friendly entertainment, and unforgettable seasonal activities.

By popular demand, the Living Snow Globe (from 2022) will return this year after the entertaining performances in the past. 

Capture memories inside the - new for 2024 - Photo Snow Globe and create your own take-home snow globe craft at Marlborough Square.

At Marlborough Square, the main stage will host a lineup of live performances, including popular local band Whiskey Chasers, community choir groups like Singing for the Soul Choir and Coalville Christ Church Community Choir, as well as Thornley Dance Academy and Century Theatre Academy. 

A funfair in Needham's Walk car park, a children's funfair in Belvoir Shopping Centre, and various street performances, such as stilt walkers, will keep the holiday spirits high.
