This year’s Dorchester Christmas Cracker event has been hailed a tremendous success.
Despite light snowfall first thing Dorchester’s second all day Cracker event was a huge success. The town saw thousands of people brave the chilly weather to enjoy the festive atmosphere.
Steve Bulley Vice President of Dorchester Chamber for business said; “It was wonderful to see the town so busy again this year. We were able to offer quality stalls offering something different.”
The event moved last year to an all day event after 25 years as an evening Christmas light switch on.
The first Childrens Santa Hat parade saw over 300 walking down High West Street.
Steve added; “Cracker is run by a small number of volunteers who work tirelessly all year round to create a festive day for our county town.”
This year the event had two main sponsors Kingston Mauward College and Everycare Dorchester. Farnfields Solicitors supported the Craft Fair in the the Dorchester Arts Corn Exchange and Parnells insolvency practitioners who supplied the Santa Hats for the Parade.
