Over 20,000 people attended this year’s Magherafelt Christmas Market.

An array of 25 artisan food and craft were the centrepiece of the 2016 market, the first event to be held in the newly refurbished town centre.

Those who attended enjoyed browsing and sampling, and took time to unwind in the lounge. There were lots of hints and tips for Christmas feasts on offer and local bands and school children performed in the marquee over the weekend.

Magherafelt’s Best Banger competition took place on the Saturday and the Christmas Jumper competition took place on Sunday.

Children also visited Santa and enjoyed storytelling from Mrs Claus at the Bridewell on Saturday.

The Lights Switch On took place on Saturday evening.

A firework display followed.
