In association with Renfrewshire Council, Paisley First will be hosting free family entertainment each weekend leading up to Christmas in December with Festive Stilt walkers, Magicians, Jugglers, Balloon modellers, face painting, music and lots more!

Get your skates on for our roller rink! County Square will be home to a festive roller rink in the town centre from Saturday 4th – Sunday 19th December.

Plus, Santa’s Reindeer will also be in town on Saturday 4th and Saturday 11th December.

Make the most of our weekend Christmas Market or enjoy our free family trail – find all our Christmas characters for your chance to win prizes!

Or why not book our Pop up Panto, Wee Red Riding Hood, taking place on Saturday 18th December at Coats Venue.

We are making up for last year and bringing festive fun for the whole family to enjoy back to Paisley town centre!

We’ll have entertainment for the kids, a chance for you to get your Christmas shopping sorted and plenty of food and drink venues to help you make the most of festive family get-togethers.

And don’t forget, Paisley’s Christmas Golden Ticket Competition is back with £500 of Paisley town centre gift vouchers up for grabs for four lucky winners!

Paisley is the only place to be this Christmas!

Remember, around 65p from every pound spent locally, stays local – so you can support the local community and its businesses while enjoying a great day out for all the family!

Visit https://bit.ly/30rAWeN for details of all our Christmas activities and how to book our Roller Rink and Pop-up Panto.

Love Christmas, Love Paisley!
