Ipswich prepares to light up Christmas
Christmas will officially arrive in Ipswich on Sunday 15th November, when the town’s festive lights are switched on in the Cornhill, marking the start of the town’s Christmas celebrations.
This year’s switch-on will be extra special as Ipswich Central launches its new ‘Follow the Stars’ Christmas campaign, bringing brand-new, fully programmable Christmas lights to the town centre. The new displays are designed to bring the town to life throughout the festive season, with different light shows and displays running every day.
The campaign aims to create a magical atmosphere across Ipswich, encouraging residents and visitors to enjoy the town during the run-up to Christmas. The new lighting forms part of a wider celebration of the town, with local businesses, shops and venues all being encouraged to get involved.
So, whether you’re heading into town for some Christmas shopping, meeting friends for a festive catch-up or simply want to enjoy the lights, Sunday 15th November is the date to put in your diary.
