Ballymena is the place to be this weekend as the town's annual Jingle Day returns, delivering festive feels and family fun while raising much-needed funds for the Northern Ireland Hospice.
Organised by the Ballymena NI Hospice Support Group, the community event in the heart of the town centre will feature live DJ sounds, school choirs, festive music, superheroes and other children's characters, Broughshane & District Pipe Band, free face painting, as well as free coffee with Vic & Hill, and of course the greatly-anticipated Santa Bus!
Santa will be riding in style this year with an electric-powered doubledecker bus provided by Wrightbus, who are delighted to be partnering with NI Hospice.
All the action will be taking place at Harmony Hub, Broadway, on Saturday, December 3rd, from 10am - 3.30pm.
Santa and his friends will be welcoming special little guests onboard for buzzing festive bus tours around the town, departing Harmony Hub on the hour from 11am with the last tour leaving at 3pm.
If you happen to be in Ballymena enjoying a spot of shopping or visiting the Christmas Market (located at Alexander Street Car Park on Saturday between 11am and 3pm) make sure to stop by and enjoy the festive performances by local school choirs and the award winning Broughshane & District Pipe Band who will be supporting the special fundraising event.
