Royal Wootton Bassett will light up on Friday when the Christmas lights are switched on by Doc Martin star Felicity Montague.

The evening of festive fun will start at 6pm, and visitors will be able to browse the High Street when it is opened for late night shopping. Children will have the opportunity to meet Father Christmas in his special grotto. To allow for the festivities, the High Street will be closed to all traffic from 5pm to 9pm.
