The annual Christmas lights switch-on, Lighting up Luton for Christmas, is returning on Saturday 23 November 2024 with an afternoon of entertainment and live music, in partnership with Luton BID and Luton Point.
The special guest this year is Bluey, courtesy of Luton BID.
Luton Point will open their Enchanted Forest Grotto on the day from 10am, enabling visitors to meet Father Christmas in his log cabin, enjoy a festive craft and have a photo on the Woodland Throne. The grotto will be open every weekend from 23 November, then daily from Saturday 21 December until Christmas Eve. Quiet sessions will be on each Sunday from 10 to 11am, offering a quieter, more relaxed environment as most of the shops won’t have opened yet. Entry is free if you spend £20 in stores at Luton Point or make a donation to charity.
There promises to be some great outdoor entertainment and live music on the day from 2pm, until the light switch-on at around 6pm.
