Duke of York Square Christmas Lights Switch On

Our traditional lights switch on celebration will star real-life reindeer, elves, and Victorian carts serving roasted chestnuts, toffee apples, candy floss and popcorn. There will be face painting for visitors of all ages, minced pies and mulled wine, and a cracking carol choir singing a chorus of festive favourites to add to the magical atmosphere.

Festivities begin on Saturday, 8th November at 3pm, building up to the light switch on at 5.30pm.

The occasion will also see the opening of the doors of our award-winning Santa’s grotto.
