St Ives In December - Christmas 2025

St Ives In December is a voluntary group who run Christmas events in St Ives Cornwall, we think it’s probably more important than ever before to make sure Christmas is full of festive cheer and things to enjoy for both locals and visitors alike. But without support this year will be the last time Santa arrives by Lifeboat.

We can just about afford to bring in Santa on the Lifeboat, parade him around town on 2nd December 2024, but with little sponsorship and donations, we will be unable to continue or indeed do any of the other events we usually do such as St Ives Lantern Parade and entertainers, as well as our ambition to do more events for children. Every little will help and go a long way. Please help preserve this special St Ives tradition. All funds raised will go towards equipment and materials needed for events to run smoothly and safely.

If you have visited St Ives at Christmas time, or live locally, please give a little to make sure our special town is able to entertain the children and create special memories for Christmas
