Five thousand residents will be invited to a “soft opening” of this year’s Enchanted Winter Garden event at Antrim Castle Gardens in November.

Of these, 4,200 will be members of community and voluntary groups in Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough. The remainder will be guests whom councillors feel are “most deserving” of an invitation. All attractions will be free of charge.

Commenting at a meeting of the borough council’s Community Planning Committee on Monday evening, Antrim DUP Councillor Paul Dunlop BEM said: “This event gets bigger every year. There is a bit of a buzz around Antrim already.”
