Hatfield Christmas lights switch-on proved to be a big hit, as crowds flocked to the popular event.

Held on Saturday in White Lion Square, with residents out in their droves to see Britain's Got Talent star Immi Davis - with a little help from Welwyn Hatfield mayor Pankit Shah - turn on the lights and illuminate the town centre.

There was plenty to see and do, with a host of talented acts, including the Bring The Party Band and the Oompah Brass Trio, with DJs on the decks between acts to provide the musical entertainment.

As always, Santa and his elves proved popular, and they were joined by street entertainers, stalls with Christmas-themed gifts and activities, and craft workshops.
