Santa Being Flying Into Westmeath This Evening For Christmas Light-Up

The event is being streamed online.

A midlands town is taking a different approach to turning on their Christmas lights this year. 

Santa is visiting Athlone for the occasion, but to abide by social distancing rules, will be arriving alone by helicopter.

However, people can watch at home through the Athlone Festivals and Events Group on Facebook at 7 o'clock this evening.
