The celebrations kick off on 22 November from 5pm with our Light switch on and Tractor run in Heol yr Orsaf Pontyclun with the annual St Paul's players panto in the week after that.
Then on 5th December is Pontyclun’s Annual Christmas Fayre. With over 70 stalls, delicious food,
festive drinks and free entertainment for the children, it promises to be a
fantastic day out for all the family. Whether you’re searching for that perfect
Christmas gift, enjoying a warming festive drink or simply soaking up the
atmosphere, the fayre is sure to make you feel as though you’ve stepped
straight into the middle of a Hallmark Christmas movie!
Music and singing will be at the heart of the celebrations
this year, with carol services aplenty. The much-loved Sally’s Angels will be
performing on 8th and 9th December, bringing their festive voices to the
community. There will also be the opportunity to gather for some traditional
Christmas cheer with singing around the Christmas tree in Groesfaen on 15th
December.
For those who prefer a little more action, the ever-popular Santa
Fun Run returns on 13th December. This year sees a new registration point
at the Community Centre, with tickets available online. Whether you’re running,
jogging or simply taking part for the fun, it’s a wonderful way to bring the
community together for a festive morning.
And the fun doesn’t stop at the finish line! The Athletic
Club will be hosting its children’s Christmas party straight after the Santa
Run. Everyone is welcome, making it the perfect opportunity for families to
continue the celebrations together.
Following the huge success of Love Pontyclun, Bethel is
bringing us Love Pontyclun Christmas this year. With a full calendar of
events planned for 18th, 19th and 20th December, there is sure to be something
special for everyone. We can’t wait to see what they have in store, and we’re
sure it will be truly magical!
As the festive season draws to a close, the Athletic Club
has one more treat up its sleeve. On 2nd January, they will be putting on a
one-night-only pantomime of Sleeping Beauty. What better way to end the
Christmas season, enjoy a little theatrical magic and celebrate the arrival of
2027?
With so much happening across Pontyclun and the surrounding
villages, this Christmas is shaping up to be a truly memorable one. These
events are a wonderful reminder of what makes our community so special: the
people, the traditions and the joy of coming together.
So, wrap up warm, gather your family and friends, and join
in the festivities!
