Christmas

Brand new lights to illuminate Plymouth city centre Plymouth’s city centre will sparkle and shine extra brightly this festive season, with brand new colourful Christmas lights illuminating the streets, to the delight of festive shoppers.

Plymouth City Centre Company, which runs the city centre Business Improvement District (BID) is working with newly appointed Christmas lights suppliers, LITE Ltd and Twinkly UK, to create the new stunning display, which will be switched on from Thursday 18 November coinciding with the first late-night shopping evening. The new displays will include banners stretched across New George Street and

Cornwall Street and sail banners on street lamps throughout the city centre. Lights will also festoon the trees in Frankfort Gate, Armada Way and Catherine Street. The giant bauble arch, which makes for a popular selfie spot at the entrance to the Christmas Market on the Piazza, will return dressed in brand new lights from 2 to 19 December. The entrance on the opposite side of the Christmas Market will now also feature

a beautiful wave-shaped arch, demonstrating Plymouth’s links with the water. This year will see new additions to the illuminations. A ‘light ceiling’ will cover Mayflower Street, with rows of lights stretched across the road. And the side of House of Fraser facing Armada Way will be covered in an impressive light curtain which will feature Christmas messaging and

displays throughout the Christmas period. LITE Ltd and Twinkly UK’s innovative technology uses LED lights that are individually controllable in each display, allowing the colours and designs of the lights to be customised and opening up new opportunities for more creative displays. Steve Hughes, Chief Executive of Plymouth City Centre Company, said: “The new Christmas lights are going to look amazing and they certainly add to the festive shopping experience, so we’re delighted to be brightening the city centre streets with these new and improved exciting displays. “Now more than ever, our high street stores need your support. This Christmas, why not come into the city centre, enjoy the lights and browse our fantastic shops before indulging in drinks or dinner at one of the many amazing eateries? Every pound you spend on the high street rather than online will make a big difference, helping to put money back into the local economy.” As the new lights are easy to change thanks to Twinkly UK’s technology, many will be kept up throughout the year ensuring the city centre sparkles all year long. Different themed displays can be programmed to match the seasons and holidays. The Christmas Lights will be switched on at a free, family-friendly event in the Piazza on Thursday 18 November with lots of entertainment to enjoy, including an amazing performance from popular funk, soul and blues group Joey The Lips.

BRIGHT LIGHTS ON THE BARBICAN Plymouth’s waterfront is set to enjoy a sprinkling of festive cheer this year too, with Christmas lights illuminating the length of Southside Street. New lights will also adorn the trees at the Vauxhall Street entrance of Southside Street, making it an enchanting entrance to the Barbican. Don’t miss the lights being switched on, which takes place on Saturday 27 November following an afternoon of free family fun and entertainment that everyone will enjoy. From 12pm, you can meet the man himself at Santa’s Grotto in Quay Square or get creative by taking a trip to his workshop in the Barbican Theatre, where you can make a special Christmas crown or sparkling snowflake. The friendly team from City College Plymouth will also be on hand at Barbican Theatre, giving you the chance to decorate your very own Christmas bauble biscuit. Entertainment begins in the performance area – located in front of the old Edinburgh Woollen Mill building – from 12pm with amazing performances from Starlines Drama School, Ocean City Sounds, Holy Cross Primary, Stage Stars and Plym Kids.

Throughout the afternoon, children can have their face painted for free inside the Tourist Information Centre and snap a special festive selfie inside a magical snow globe. There’s also storytelling in The Maritime Inn, where you can snuggle up with a mug of hot chocolate and keep warm. And while you’re having fun, don’t forget to keep an eye out for the Grinch, who will be roaming the streets trying to steal the spirit of Christmas. A huge Christmas parade will also take place – and everyone is invited to join in! Led by the Barbican Theatre’s amazing 7 metre tall Christmas elf puppet and accompanied by a junk band, the parade will make its way up and down Southside Street and end at Santa’s Grotto, where everyone will line up to escort Santa to the stage for the big switch-on from 5.20pm. Santa will be joined by the Lord Mayor of Plymouth and a very special guest – a Community Hero that’s been nominated by the people of Plymouth – and together they’ll be turning the lights on, bringing plenty of festive cheer to the Barbican.

Festive family fun in Plymouth Get into the spirit of the season with the whole family! There’s so much going on in Plymouth that will keep everyone entertained, young and old alike, so you can relax and enjoy quality time together.

Younger family members will love the opportunity to have breakfast with Santa. The big man himself will be visiting The Box every Saturday and

Sunday between 27 November and 19 December to share breakfast at 9am – he’ll be there to greet you before you sit down to tuck into either pancakes with maple syrup or blueberries, or a delicious breakfast bap. Alternatively, hop across the river Tamar to China Fleet Country Club in Saltash on 5, 12 or 19 December and enjoy lunch in Santa’s Grotto with gifts

and plenty of festive fun. If mornings aren’t your thing, there are still lots of other opportunities to meet Santa.

Expect a lampfull of laughs, stunning scenery, flying carpets and of course, plenty of boos and hisses. But for something a little bit different, there are other brilliantly wintry shows to enjoy. Little ones will love The Man Who Wanted To Be A Penguin (1 December to 22 January), a playful mix of puppetry, music

and song that celebrates the joy of individuality. The whole family are sure to be mesmerised by White Christmas The Musical (7 to 11 December), which comes to Plymouth direct from the West End and features romance, comedy and classic songs. The Soapbox Children’s Theatre in Devonport are also putting on special family shows. For under 5s, there’s The Christmas Mouse (8 to 24 December) featuring snowy scenes, colourful characters and enthralling puppets

that will capture toddlers’ attention. Then everyone over the age of 4, including adults, can wrap up warm and enjoy the festive outdoor show of The Magic Lantern and the Story Thief (5 to 31 December) where people’s stories are brought to life by the light of the lantern. Pre-booking is advised for all these festive events so please remember to check the event organisers’ website before you plan your visit.
