Christmas at Houlton 2024
Posted 28 Mar 2025, 10:59 a.m.
It’s time for a Houlton Christmas event roundup! December saw a variety of festive events take place in Houlton as the days got cooler and the evenings got darker, our community only got more jolly.
The Fantastic Houlton Events Team ran a stunning Christmas Lights Switch on, complete with a festive market and visit from Santa himself!
Next, up was the annual Advent Reveal at The Barn in collaboration with Houlton Guides, Brownies and Rainbows. The girls made some fantastic decorations and despite a spot of rain everyone was in chipper spirits with hot chocolate in one hand and a gingerbread man in the other.
If people weren’t feeling festive enough at this point, Urban&Civic Communities Team organised with Crick Scouts Brigade for a visit from Santa on his sleigh whilst collecting funds to support those who might not have the means to celebrate.
And finally, Father Christmas was back for three days meeting Houlton’s youngest residents. This event was run by Urban&Civic Communities Team, St Gabriels PFTA and the Rugby Heritage Lions Club. The event saw over 130 children meet Santa, have a photo with the big man himself, receive a present and enjoy crafts, a sing song and a story.
