Windsor Christmas Lights Switch-on

About this event

Few places do a Christmas lights switch-on quite like Windsor, where the festive celebrations take place on Castle Hill beneath the walls of Windsor Castle. From 1pm, enjoy carol-singing choirs, fairground rides and market stalls selling gifts and seasonal treats, before the cast of the Theatre Royal pantomime flicks the switch and the town lights up. The atmosphere is wonderfully festive, with the castle as the most spectacular of backdrops. Free to attend. Arrive early for a good spot, as it gets busy.
