bank holiday in May in the grounds of St Nicholas Church. We

have many stalls, activities and experiences for all the family to

enjoy. Along with animals, emergency vehicles, bouncy castles

and much, much more. Plenty of lovely food and live music will

ensure there is something for everyone. All proceeds to Local

Christmas Lights Switch-On

North Walsham Christmas Lights, are part of Walsham Community

Events Group, a not-for-profit voluntary led committee, whose

aim is to ensure the town has Christmas Lights each year. The lights

are erected each year by a team of like minded people with the

same aim to ensure each Christmas North Walsham has Christmas

Lights. The lights are entirely funded by donations from the town’s

businesses, grants and from the revenue made at the street fair. The

annual street fair features stalls, entertainment, Father Christmas

grotto and carol singing all leading up to the grand switch-on

at 6.00pm. The group is always seeking new help from ladder

climbers to santa’s elves. For more information contact Colin.

Funday

The North Walsham Funday was started in 2010 by members

of the North Walsham Lions and North Walsham Town Council.

Many changes have taken place over the years and we now see

the Funday being run as a four day event with L Gray & Sons

Funfair joining us. The Funday is held on the last weekend of

June every year.

Thursday: Funfair open night. Friday: First night in the

marquee normally disco or live music. Saturday: Car boot sale,

Live music in the marquee and carnival parade (leaving the

Industrial Estate at 5pm and finishing on the park).

Sunday: The Funday! Vintage vehicles, stalls of all types, fresh

cooked food, displays, wildlife displays, live music from local

bands and all the fun of the fair.

Other fund raising events are held throughout the year to help

fund the Parade. We are always looking for new members &

volunteers to help at the events.
