Large crowds turned out for a Christmas market and fairground rides, as well as live entertainment from singer Breanna Regency Dance Centre, Star and Stage Dance School and choirs from Leamington Primary Academy, Dalestorth School, St Mary Magdalene School, Croft Primary School and Priestic School.
Coun Arnie Hankin (Ash Ind), chairman of Ashfield Council, did the honours in flicking the switch on the stage and getting Christmas officially underway in the town.
