Special guest lined up for Clonony Castle Christmas event

Santa will be making his annual visit to Clonony Castle this weekend to hear what local children want for Christmas this year.

He will be available at the castle from 12 noon until 4 pm on Sunday, December 1.

There will be no charge for those wishing to meet Santa, though if people wish to make a donation on the day, it will be very welcome.

There will also be treats and sweets provided for the children attending the event, and there will be an opportunity to have a photo taken with Santa, which will also be free of charge.

This annual event has become very popular due to its setting in the early 16th century castle, so come early to enjoy the atmosphere.
