Ahead of the Christmas Lights Switch On, Sunday 18th November, Penarth in Bloom’s Christmas Planters return for a third Christmas season.

Last year saw many traders across town embellish the scheme’s mini Christmas trees and so this year, a competition has been introduced for the best decorated tree!

The Town Mayor, Cllr. Jon Luxton will judge the entrants this Friday, 16th November, before the winner is announced live on stage during Sunday’s event.

Penarth’s traders are known for their creativity and pride in town, and this is sure to be a keenly contested title!

The planters form part of the award winning Penarth in Bloom scheme.

Penarth’s Christmas Lights Switch On takes place on Windsor Road on Sunday 18th November, between 3pm and 7pm, with the light switch on at 5.30pm.
