Details have been announced for the Christmas light switch on event in Warwick this year.

The town's popular Victorian Evening returns on Thursday 24 November, offering residents the chance to step back in time and experience the sights, sounds and smells of a Victorian Christmas.

Starting from 12pm with a Victorian market in Market Square, the rides and entertainment will begin at 3pm with the lights being switched on at 7pm.

Warwick's switch on is one of a number of events being hosted across the district between 6 November to 4 December.

Cllr Liam Bartlett, portfolio holder for arts and economy at Warwick District Council, said: "We're delighted to be once again hosting these events, where friends and families come together to celebrate their faith and mark the start of the festive season.

"Not only do these events provide a sense of community, but they are also a great support for our local businesses so get the dates in your diaries now and get ready to light up the district."
