A garden centre is giving people the opportunity to hear live jazz at a Christmas fair this weekend.

Harrow Garden Centre, in Headstone Lane, is holding the free event on Saturday and Sunday.

A pianist from the Friends of The Gershwin Gang will perform jazz music on Saturday from 12pm until 3pm.

On Sunday, from 11am until 3pm, cast members from The Hill Players will be dressed as characters from their up and coming production of Sleeping Beauty.

Mike Townend, manager of the garden centre, explained: “We will be welcoming visitors to our special festive weekend and to celebrate we have organised some entertainment for our customers.

“We will also have a life-like, animated polar bear family on-site, which has proved popular with children in the past.”
