Keswick’s Christmas Lights Switch-On and Lumiere

The magic of Christmas comes early to Keswick this year, kicking off with festivities, lights and music as we switch on our Christmas Lights on Friday 8th November.

The lights bring some joy during the dark, cold winter months and lead the way to the highlight of our year… Christmas! Every year the switch on event is just right for getting you in the mood and reminding you not to despair, Christmas is just around the corner.

Join us in Packhorse Court at 5.30pm when we turn on the lights, and later at 7.00pm to switch on the lights at Market Square. From 1pm there is loads happening around Keswick including a Christmas Food and Gift Fayre, Christmas choirs, live broadcasting by Lakeland Radio, and more.

We’re hoping for a great turn out this year with the Fayre opening from 1pm in Market Square and an extra special Santa’s Workshop plus a visit from Santa in Packhorse Court 4.30pm – 5.15pm.

With FREE car parking in all Allerdale Borough Council car parks plus live coverage riding Lakeland Radio’s radio waves we’re looking forward to a brilliant, bustling and exciting atmosphere.
