Pateley Bridge attracted the crowds on Thursday, December 14, for a late-night shopping event that promised more festive sparkle than ever before.
The special event was brought together by the town’s residents, groups, and traders, who organised this year’s event with a variety of live music, Santa’s Grotto, and a specially created Reindeer Treasure Hunt to feel festive about.
Shops were open until 8pm offering complimentary treats and refreshments whilst Santa himself drove a Range Rover up and down the High Street throughout the evening.
