This year the festivities will be run over two weeks, from Saturday 26 November to Sunday 11 December, and will include the launch of the Jersey Christmas Appeal in the Royal Square on Saturday 3 December at 6 pm.

That day Jersey’s Palais de Glace will also open at the waterfront at 9.30 am.

Santa will arrive on his sleigh and a village of crafts and festive gifts will open around the rink.

The Fête dé Noué has been running for more than four years, and a number of the Island’s attractions including the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, Jersey Pottery, La Mare Vineyards, the Amaizin’ Maze and Jersey Pearl are participating this year.

Jersey Tourism development executive Sarah-Jane Stirling said that all ages and tastes were being catered for in a programme of events which draws on Jersey’s heritage as well as on a large amount of imagination.

A number of activities for children are on offer including We’re Going on a Bear Hunt – a free walk through the green lanes and the churches.

Walks for adults include the After Dark Ghost Walk that will explore the Island’s haunted sites.
