Christmas magic returns with festive events

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is delighted to announce a packed programme of festive events to celebrate the Christmas season across the District.

The countdown to Christmas begins with the Christmas Lights Switch-On Events in Enniskillen Town Centre on Saturday 21 November.

Visitors can enjoy a full day of seasonal entertainment including brass bands, carol singing, festive characters, and arts and crafts.

Local performers will then take to the stage at The Diamond, Enniskillen, with entertainment starting from 1pm.

We will welcome performances from Willowbridge School Enniskillen who will help create a wonderful festive atmosphere at our Christmas Lights Switch on.

The main switch-on celebrations begin at 4.30pm, leading up to the official lighting of the Christmas displays at 5.30pm.

A wide range of festive activities and entertainment will be on offer across Council venues. At Marble Arch Caves, visitors can enjoy Christmas Willow Weaving, the Elf Escape Sensory Space, Mrs Claus’s Cottage, Carols in the Cave and extended festive Guided Cave Tours.

Enniskillen Castle will offer festive activities and seasonal markets for adults and children. Christmas art workshops will also take place at Ardhowen Theatre.

Festive entertainment will also be available at Ardhowen Theatre with seasonal shows ideal for a festive get-together or Christmas night out. Highlights include Christmas Country with The Stars and the Caritas Choir Christmas Concert at the Ardhowen Theatre.
