Almost a thousand people got in the festive spirit and enjoyed the annual children's pantomime at Alloa Town Hall on Saturday.
M&M Theatrical Production's performances of Peter Pan were a sell out success with local families enjoying this affordable Christmas tradition of a trip to the panto.
The festive season is well underway in Clackmannanshire with Christmas Fun Sessions taking place at the Speirs Centre on Friday 11th December and Saturday 12th December when children aged up to 10 years can enjoy fun and games in the soft play area, followed by a visit from Santa.
If you'd rather be outside on Saturday 12th December why not join in the Nature Adventure Day at Gartmorn Dam when children aged 7-12 years can enjoy an interactive walk and activities with the RSPB's information officer.
Other forthcoming festivities include the annual Senior Citizen's Police Concert Party is in Alloa Town Hall on Tuesday 15th December for ticket holders only.
The Alloa Town Centre BID has set up a Santa's Grotto in Drysdale Street within the Make Room, the Imagine Alloa artists' base. Children visiting will each receive a gift as well as have the chance to have their photo taken with Santa and make their own Christmas decorations with the Imagine Alloa artists. There is a charge and all children must be accompanied by an adult.
The grotto will be open from noon-4pm on the following days:
The town centre BID team is also encouraging local business to take part in the Christmas shop window competition.
The Winter Works exhibition runs at the Aberdona Galley until 8th February and includes a range of arts and crafts which could make an unusual or special gift.
