The biggest annual get-together of Brigg folk - and very welcome visitors from outside town - takes place tonight (Friday) with the switching on of the town centre Christmas lights, Brigg District Lions' Christmas Fayre (with many stalls) and late night shopping in town centre shops.
The lights will be switched on at a ceremony at 5pm, following which the fun gets under way until 9pm.
It's a big night for traders throughout the town - ranging from fast food outlets to pubs and our shops which are staying open late to allow people to hunt out Christmas presents for friends and family.
This event always proves to be the biggest crowd-puller of the year in Brigg town centre.
North Lincolnshire Council is offering FREE parking to motorists as a gesture of goodwill, also operating in Scunthorpe during the festive period.
Brigg Town Council - to its credit - funds the Christmas lights, and will be at the forefront of tonight's event, together with the hard-working volunteers from the Lions.
You can also contribute to worthy local charities tonight, such as Brigg LIVES First Responders.
Sandra Notman Clarvis, one of the group's members, says: "Don't forget to visit our stall at the Christmas market in Brigg. Tell your friends!!! Free parking from 4pm, (if you arrive before that you can get a free 2 hour ticket to tide you over until the free 4pm)."

Tomorrow (Sat) Brian's DIY, in Wrawby Street, has a fundraiser in aid of LIVES. So don't forget to have a look in.
