It’s that time of the year again when Jubilee Square in Simon's Town will be transformed into a Christmas wonderland for the annual Switching on of the Christmas Lights.
The event will take place on Sunday, 7 December, at 6pm.
Visitors can enjoy a performance by the SA Navy Band and refreshments from surrounding establishments on the square. Attendees are asked to bring their own seating, as all available chairs have already been booked, though there is plenty of extra space for additional chairs.
