The Manningtree Winter Light Festival
The Manningtree Winter light Festival
Saturday 17th December. 5-8pm
Join us as we bring fun, light and a little sprinkling of Christmas magic to Manningtree Town in our first ever Winter Light Festival!
There’ll be late night opening and plenty of free entertainment and street theatre and mulled wine. Father Christmas will also be in his grotto and lighting the way we’ll have the spectacular illuminated marching band Spark! and the wonderful Light Gliders, dazzling us with their swirls and twirls!

And keep an eye out for the weird and wonderful Slinky Love as they bring a little bit of stretchy, bendy, festive romance to the party! And don’t forget to look up, you never know what you might see!
