Prioritising the city’s annual Christmas Lights Installation over the Christmas Lights Switch-on event

Due to financial pressures we have decided to prioritise projects including installing and maintaining the city centre Christmas Lights rather than holding a dedicated Truro Christmas Lights Switch-on event this year. Truro’s City Centre Christmas lights will now come on automatically this year during the afternoon of Saturday 22nd November to coincide with the first day of Truro’s Christmas Markets. There will continue to be a programme of festive activities in Truro from 22nd November including Christmas Markets and full details will be announced later this year and listed on www.visittruro.org.uk. See our full media release.
