LOCALS flocked to the Christmas Gift Fair at Junction24 at the weekend to kick off the festive period.
Visitors were able to browse over 100 stalls, giving them plenty of present ideas for friends and family.
The fair was held between 10am and 4pm and Father Christmas made some time in his busy schedule to visit the event at around 3pm.
Children each received free gifts from Santa Clause.
All the stalls at the fair were small local independent businesses that appreciated the support before Christmas. There were makers, creators and bakers and much more.
After the event, organisers Enosis Events said: "Thank you, Marlborough and Junction 24.
"You came and supported your local businesses today at the two events. We hope you had a wonderful time and look forward to welcoming you again next year."
Enosis Events organises festivals, galas, weddings and parties in the south west.
