About Us
It will be the 11th year that the Reindeers have paraded through the streets of Wells letting the children know that it will soon be Christmas. There will be seasonal craft stalls, music and entertainment for all the family. This event is free and usually attracts thousands of people to our beautiful city. There will be a poem competition for two age categories of children with prizes for all and the possibility (to be confirmed) of reading the winning poems out on the local radio.
