🎄 Dover Christmas Lights Switch-On 2026!
We're really pleased to announce that Dover's Christmas lights switch-on will be taking place on Saturday 28th November in the Market Square!
Music will start from 4pm, with the lights being switched on at about 5:30pm.
This is our first year organising the Christmas lights through Dover Chamber of Trade, and we're hoping it's the start of something we can continue to build on year after year. We've got plenty of ideas for the future, but for now we're looking forward to getting everyone together and bringing a bit of Christmas cheer to the town!
There won't be any stalls or food concessions at the switch-on, as we'd really like to encourage everyone coming along to make use of the local businesses already in Dover. Whether it's grabbing something to eat, popping into a pub or café, or doing a bit of Christmas shopping, it's a great opportunity to support our town centre.
A big thank you to everyone who has helped make this happen!
We hope to see plenty of you there! 🎄
