STEVENSTON’S big festive lights switch-on really did have something for everyone.

Santa arrived for the Friday evening event along with real reindeer.

And as well as some brilliant lights to be seen, there was a wonderful firework display, which was enjoyed by all.

There was free activities and free refreshments available from the Hope Project.

And with stalls, fairground rides and even a free movie at the end of the night, most agreed the Stevenston event was certainly one of the best festive parties in North Ayrshire this year.
