Beauty and the Beast show at the South Holland Centre as part of Spalding Pumpkin Festival

Organisers hope to spread a bit of magic throughout Spalding town centre – with an extra event at this year pumpkin festival.

Spalding Pumpkin Festival is set to return on Saturday, October 7 with a whole host of activities, entertainment, food and more.

One of the newest additions to this year’s celebration will be a cinema screen performance of Beauty and the Beast, ahead of the Polka Dot Christmas pantomime show later this year.

The live-action screening, which features Emma Watson playing Belle, will be held at the South Holland Centre at 10am.

Tickets for the show will cost £3 and can be purchased by visiting the Market Place venue’s website.

On the day visitors can also enjoy taking part in the harvest fancy dress competition, games, pumpkin sculptures, an autumn globe, food stalls and much more.

Broad Street Methodist Church will also be hosting some free craft sessions and coffee morning between 10am and 1pm.
