Next year we have moved the lights to Saturday 17th & Sunday 18th November 2012, On the Saturday we will have a christmas fayre market using the traders that are in the market, plans have only been mentioned today so i dont have a list of the ins and outs yet however the market traders were very supportive and want to be involved so that should keep a percentage happy, We are going to have choirs from local schools and churches through the day, the main stage will again be up and running and entertainment throughout the day will be on till late evening with a fireworks display, and Sunday they are going to be having an xmas service with carols and things at the chruches, I brought up your points and they were listened to..... So lets see how it goes

Good start
Can I suggest another idea for the day as it's a weekend. 100 traders chip in £5 each. Treasure hunt covering the whole town centre with clues in shop windows/market stalls of those particpating. The £500 prize will bring more people in and makes sure they see the whole town centre in the process.
Obvious issue is it needs somebody to volunteer to do it, but you never know
