Mansfield’s Big Switch On event to launch the town’s Christmas lights on Sunday, 19th November will feature Marshall from children’s television favourite PAW Patrol.

The character from the Nick Jr show will be out and about during the afternoon.

He will appear first at the Four Seasons Shopping Centre at 2pm before heading to the stage show in the Market Place.

As well as Marshall, the show will feature live acts, prize giveaways, panto cast stars from Mansfield Palace Theatre’s Jack And The Beanstalk, and special guests.

The Big Switch On is organised by Mansfield District Council in partnership with the Four Seasons, the Palace Theatre, Mansfield 103.2 and Mansfield BID. Matthews and Tannert, plumbing, heating and electrical services specialist, is sponsoring the event.
