The nights are drawing in, the countdown to Christmas is on, and plenty is planned in Shepton Mallet throughout the winter to make it a memorable occasion and help keep the winter blues at bay.

Running from November to March, there's everything from free family-friendly theatre to creative workshops for the over 55s, Christmas markets and literary festivals, there's a little bit of something for everyone in this year's Winter Series. Moreover, with Shepton Mallet Town Council funding, nearly every event in the programme is free to access - although you might need to book in advance.

The events kick off with the Winter Wanderland and Shepton Mallet Carnival, but for those looking to get a headstart on their Christmas prep and shopping, you can take your pick from a natural materials Christmas decoration workshop, print your own Christmas card event, wreath making, Christmas markets and Victorian Fayre.

If you're in the mood for a party, there's an LGBTQ+ disco, dance performances, Lantern Festival after-party and dance events.

And if you prefer something a little quieter and more reflective, you're covered too, with writing and art workshops, religious worship, tea parties and quizzes.

You can find the full program online here.
