Provost Una Walker officially switched on the festive lights at the fun event on Thursday, organised by Bishopbriggs Community Council.

There was a chance for children to visit Santa’s Grotto, a funfair and performances from local school choirs, including Woodhill, St Helen’s and Meadowbank.

Tom Dibble of the community council said: “Around three to four thousand people turned out. We are delighted at the success of the event.”
