Tips & Advice

  • Come to the switch-on on the first Sunday of Advent and arrive a little early, because free children's punch is served before the lights go on.
  • Bring some small change to the switch-on, because a sausage may be offered for a small donation alongside the free children's punch.
  • Visit in the early morning or in the evening, because the display is only lit during one morning window and one evening window each day.
  • Dress warmly, since you'll be standing outside on the street to take in the snowman, reindeer, angels and sleds.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Switch-on on the first Sunday of Advent, November 29, with free children's punch beforehand and possibly a sausage for a small donation.
