Christmas Lights Switch-On

Time: 15:00 (lights switch-on 18:00)

Join us for a festive afternoon and evening in Melksham! Explore the Christmas Market with seasonal stalls, enjoy live music, visit Santa’s Grotto or hop on funfair rides, before gathering with the community for the town’s Christmas Lights Switch On.

At approximately 18:00, the town’s Christmas lights display and digital tree, installed by the Melksham Christmas Lights Group and Light Fantastic, will be officially switched on. Thank you to the Melksham Christmas Lights Group for their continued dedication to creating a spectacular lights display for the town each year. The group is run entirely by volunteers who work tirelessly to make Melksham a special place to celebrate Christmas.

Thank you to our event sponsor, Specsavers (Melksham), whose support helps create a whole day of fun for the family! Learn more about their services at www.specsavers.co.uk/stores/melksham
