Merry Christmas from Pauly!

The man behind Wokingham’s International Street Concert performed at The Duke’s Head tonight for the 22nd day of the Living Advent Calendar.

Pauly Zarb, well known around the borough, sung in the Denmark Street pub to the delight of his audience. He was accompanied by a young choir, adding to the sense of occasion.

There are now just three days left in the Living Advent Calendar – and every one will be a cracker.

Tomorrow – Wednesday, December 23 – the artistic surprise will come from The Dollshouse Boutique in Rose Street. Be there at 6.15pm to find out what’s behind the window.

On Christmas Eve, the final venue will be Wokingham Baptist Church in Milton Road, for a celebration of the Christmas story.

You can check all the venues in the calendar by logging on to our interactive map.
