Purbeck Hills Christmas Tree Festival

After a complete write-off of last year’s advent season there is a determination to get back to normality, therefore a Christmas tree festival will take place once again at St George’s Church, Langton Matravers from 4th – 6th December 9am till 5pm. This is a chance for people to meet, wander through a truly wonderful display of individually decorated trees, pause for coffee or tea and maybe even tempted to a slice of cake. There will be moments throughout the weekend when local musical groups will perform, starting with the Swanage recorder group also contributing will be the Mayday singers and U3A Ukulele group who performed in August at the Langton Fête, Once finalised the times of these acts will be published on the church notice board, this website and other social media sites.
