The event was organised as an alternative to the traditional Christmas lights switch-on that was axed by Mansfield Council due to 'financial constraints'.
Mansfield’s Cosy Christmas took place on Saturday November 23 in the Memorial Garden behind the Old Town Hall featuring projections onto the Old Town Hall, live performances by a local choir, brass band, and an operatic solo artist plus crafts, face painting and festive giveaways.
