THE festive season got underway in Malton last night.
Entertainment was provided in the Market Place, with Waddington fairground rides and a performance by Dance Expression.
This was followed by arrival of Father Christmas, courtesy of Malton and Norton Lions’ Club to greet the crowd.
The Christmas lights were switched on at 6pm by Daniel Parslow, a York City football player, introduced by the Mayor of Malton Councillor Paul Andrews.
