Thousands Flock to Mountain Ash Parade
December 4, 2008
Around 3,000 people enjoyed the winter parade in Mountain Ash on Tuesday (December 2, 2008).
People of all ages flocked to the town centre on a bitterly cold night to see the town’s Christmas lights switched on, after Santa arrived on a sleigh pulled by six reindeer.
Children enjoyed visiting Santa’s grotto and funfair rides, and festive character Jack Frost entertained the crowds.
The event was organised by Rhondda Cynon Taf Council and assisted by Darran Las Communities First. Local ward member and Chairman of the Communities First Partnership, Cllr Andrew Morgan, said: “This annual event in Mountain Ash continues to draw thousands of spectators to see Santa with his reindeer.
