It was held on October 28 by new landlords of the Red Lion in Ruskington, Andrew Hall and Lisa Roberts.

Andrew, a former professional rugby player with Leicester Tigers, said it went better than anticipated.

“ It was absolutely amazing, with over 150 children and parents inside and outside the pub,” Andrew said.

“ We had egg and spoon racing, tin can alley, fancy dress competition with prizes and karaoke.”

Andrew added: “The feedback from the village has been phenomenal with the community saying it was what the village needed - to have a family pub back and bringing back the community spirit.”

He plans further events including a Santa’s grotto, duck race at Easter and children’s summer parties.
