Gather at St Ninian's Cathedral from 4pm and enjoy the official switch on of this year's Nativity in the grounds of this beautiful church. From 5pm, Perth and District Pipe Band will lead the parade through the city streets to St John's Kirk, where a joyful carol service featuring Perthshire Brass will take place. From 6.15pm everyone is welcome to enjoy mince pies, hot tea and festive refreshments in the Knox Chapel, providing a fitting finale to a heartwarming weekend of Christmas celebrations.
