There's more to Christmas than the food, the parties and the presents. Bolton has a great range of events coming up to celebrate the festive period with a whole range of carol services, concerts, plays and pantomimes, as well as the great Winter Wonderland in the town centre.
If you'd like to do something a little more cultured this year, take a look at what's going on. And, before you think these events will be older people in a draughty Church, well, times have changed . . .
