A brand-new brochure highlighting Christmas events across Barnstaple has been produced by the Flourishing Barnstaple team and will be available free of charge from Monday 24 November and available online from Friday 21 November at www.barnstaple.co.uk.
Building on the success of previous summer and Christmas guides, the Flourishing Barnstaple team has worked closely with the Barnstaple Events Team and a wide range of local organisations to pull together this year’s festive programme. The brochure is packed with a diverse mix of seasonal activities and events and can be accessed online, collected from the Barnstaple Pannier Market, or picked up at the following locations:
- North Devon Council’s Town Centre Hub, Green Lanes
- Barnstaple Library
- Queen’s Theatre
- The Museum of Barnstaple & North Devon
- St Anne’s Chapel
- Barnstaple Town Council
- The Town Centre Hub, Green Lanes Shopping Centre, Barnstaple
Featuring over 100 events taking place throughout November and December, the brochure brings together performances, workshops, family activities and community celebrations from across the town.
Lee Baxendale, Cultural Producer at Flourishing Barnstaple, said: “As Barnstaple lights up for the festive season, it’s fantastic to gather all the Christmas events into one cheerful guide. Whether it’s performances, workshops or family fun, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. It’s a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the magic and warmth of Christmas in our town.”
The brochure has been created by Flourishing Barnstaple in partnership with the Barnstaple Events Team - a network of event organisers and venues who work collaboratively to strengthen the town’s cultural output.
