Apple experts will be on hand to identify mystery apples, fruit trees and plants will be available from the nursery, and as usual there will be a range of other attractions including: rural craft fair and demonstratons; community fete; local produce stalls; horse and cart rides; cakes and teas; climbing wall; Morris dancing; and cider of course!

Alton Christmas Lights and Market

 Visitors to the event will be spoilt with choice with a vast selection of food and drink stalls. For those who are shopping or browsing, there will be plenty of commercial and charity stalls to visit along the High Street and inside the Assembly Rooms. Children will have the opportunity to meet Father Christmas and an Ice Queen.
