Five Valleys joins the festivities for Stroud Goodwill Evening
2 December 2024
Entertainment, events and late-night shopping are planned at Five Valleys for Stroud’s annual Goodwill evening this Friday (December 6th)
The centre team have organised a special evening including local performers as well as the popular Five Valleys market which will open until 8pm. Stores across the centre will also be opening until late.
Families will have the chance to visit the free Santa’s Grotto in Stroud Library at Five Valleys from 4pm-6pm and there will also be free face painting.
The Rosary Catholic Primary School Choir will be performing, and the Jazz Friday Big Band will also be playing at the centre.
The traditional lantern parade makes its way along King Street after setting off at 6pm and there will also be a funfair, stalls, stilt walkers and live music across the town. This year’s Goodwill Festival also extends into Saturday.
Five Valleys is already lit up for Christmas including a stunning Christmas tree provided by Montpellier Legal in the courtyard outside the company’s new Stroud office.
As well as the usual foodie offering at Five Valleys Market, visitors will also be able to enjoy candy floss, hot chocolate and mulled wine as well as a range of charity stalls.
Kelly Winkworth, assistant centre manager at Five Valleys, said: “Goodwill Evening is a special date in Stroud's diary with events happening across the town. We are delighted to be joining in the festivities with some special events and entertainment on Friday evening.
“The centre is already looking really festive, and we’ve welcomed so many new businesses this year which will be enjoying their first Christmas at Five Valleys, including of course Ducklings Toy Shop."
