Christmas Is Coming To Oxford Street! The Switch-On Date Has Been Announced

London’s favourite high street will be lit up for the festive season and this year they will display a powerful message of unity and hope.

The Oxford Street sparklers will be making a return in November. The streets will be lit with 27 LED ‘light curtains’ made up of a total of 222,000 lights, which will showcase a poem dedicated to the city of London.

There will be no switch-on event this year, but the Oxford Street Christmas lights will be shining earlier than last year, exactly from the 2nd of November.
