  • Fakenham Virtual Christmas Tree Festival

    The Fakenham Parish Church Christmas Tree Festival Team had lengthy debate back in April before deciding that we had to go virtual.  We now regard this as admirable foresight!  Our plans are very well advanced. and the daily videos for the website – fakenhamchristmastreefestival.co.uk – have been filmed and are being edited ready for release.

    Unfortunately, lockdown 2.0 will mean some changes, but much will be able to go ahead as planned. The website will operate as announced and both the Town Trail and the art competition can go ahead.  Entry forms for the Town Trail can be downloaded from the website or collected from Bailey, Bird & Warren in Bridge Street.  If neither of these is possible, the back of an envelope will be fine!  Completed entries can be emailed to [email protected] or delivered to the Rectory Office in Gladstone Road.

    Sadly, there will not be a live-streamed service on ‘Festival Sunday’, but there will be a pre-recorded service on the website.

    Fakenham will be ‘Christmas Tree Town’.  We are asking those businesses which offered to have a Christmas Tree themed display to do this whenever they can and individual households to use this second enforced ‘stay at home’ to create exciting and imaginative displays for their homes.

    Whatever its limitations, and whatever the obstacles, there will be a Fakenham Parish Church Christmas Tree Festival in 2020!
