This year Nick Tansley and his great team from the Carols by Candlelight Trust will be holding the Christmas Carols at The Basin Reserve. The new venue is a first for Nick and the beauty of the new location is that families can bring their blankets and food and have a picnic and be part of christmas. Glass and alcohol are banned but all your picnic fare is acceptable.

Doors open at 5.30pm
