Christmas Wonderland is a collection of events, activities, and festive things happening from November 23, in and around South Tyneside and includes, a spectacular Camel Parade, Christmas fayres, Christmas lights switch ons in the borough’s three town centres and much more.

Richard said: “The event helps bring the spirit of Christmas to the people of South Tyneside, with something for all the family, whether it be Christmas shopping, or seeing Santa. “Colmans is delighted to sponsor the Christmas Wonderland event and be part of something which brings the community together.”

Councillor Alan Kerr, deputy leader of South Tyneside Council with responsibility for Culture and Leisure, said: “We are delighted to have Colmans supporting our Christmas Wonderland programme of events this year. Colmans have been strong supporters of our annual events programme for many years and for this we are extremely grateful.
