This week Accrington Stanley stars Billy Kee and Piero Mingoia helped turn on the Accrington Christmas Lights.

Some great acts performed including Britains Got Talent’s  Henry Gallagher & Gabz. Billy and Piero went on stage for an interview along with mascot Winstanley as they thanked the town for their  support and wished everyone a merry Christmas!

Free Accrington Stanley posters were given out to the crowd and plenty of youngsters had their pictures taken with Winstanley before he took part in the Christmas mascot race, the race was eventually won by Santa himself!

A big thank you to Billy and Piero for their support with the event.
