Christmas spirit was in full force at Dockyard on Sunday, as families enjoyed a fun day and a parade.

Santa was on hand to meet the children, while his wife Mrs Claus read stories and elves handed out candy canes.

Elsewhere on the day, which ran from midday to 7pm, visitors could check out snow machines, a craft market, zip line rides, fun castles, a book signing, a chess session and more.

This was the third Sunday Christmas event at Dockyard this month, with the previous shindig on December 13 featuring carol singing with dolphins.
