Santa is coming to town, and he has told the Comet which dates he will be visiting neighbourhoods in Baldock this festive season. 

The Baldock Rotary is helping Santa to get everybody in the mood for Christmas with their Santa sleigh which will be flying around Baldock from November 27 until December 17. 

The route will run every day between 6pm to 8pm throughout Baldock on the designated days for each area, except on Sunday, December 8 and Monday, December 16. 

As well as the planned residential route, the sleigh will also be making a special stop at Baldock services from November 30 to December 1, the Christmas Lights Switch On at Baldock Market Place on December 7 and Baldock Tesco between December 14 to 15. 

Santa will be ready and waiting to give a friendly hello and to hear about what you would like to wake up to on Christmas morning underneath the tree.
