HUNDREDS turned out to welcome the festive season at the Stonehouse Goodwill Fest on Saturday.
Goodwill filled the streets of the town as visitors came to browse an array of attractions.
Children met Father Christmas in his magical grotto, while musical entertainment was provided on the town green all afternoon.
Punch and Judy shows entertained, and shoppers browsed an array of craft and arts stalls.
Visitors lined the High Street to watch a spectacular procession from Park Junior School, led by Father Christmas, his elves and two reindeer, Dancer and Blitzen.
Father Christmas and the mayor of Stonehouse then switched on the Christmas tree lights.
