There were free rides, face painting, street food and live music, among other activities, and the reveal of Rutherford & Co’s Christmas window took place during the event.
It built up to Santa, Mayor Betty Bawn and a competition winner taking to the stage to officially light up Morpeth and kick off the Christmas countdown.
