CLARKS Village will twinkle this month as the Outlet Centre hosts its first official Christmas lights switch-on tonight (November 20).

Special guests, Heart 102.6 breakfast presenters, Ed, Troy and Paulina, will turn the lights on around the centre as they host an evening of family fun.

The event will kick off at 5pm as the Heart team takes to the stage lead a Christmas carol sing-along followed by the big countdown at 6pm.

The 30ft Christmas tree, decorated with over 6,000 twinkling lights, will form the centrepiece of the celebrations plus the village will be illuminated with a spectacular laser show.

For those who still need to tell Santa what they would like for Christmas, the man himself will be arriving in his sleigh from 7pm - 8pm for a photo opportunity or two. The Christmas chalet, located outside Coast, will also host festive fun, complimentary festive treats, music, competitions and other activities until 9pm.

Throughout the evening money will be collected for the Multiple Sclerosis Society, the official Clarks Village 2014 charity.
