Carnaby Street Lights Switch On
Introducing 'All is Bright' an evolution of our design-led Christmas Lights installation.
SAVE THE DATE: Thursday 6 November
Carnaby Street will switch on its captivating Christmas lights on Thursday 6th November, ushering in the festive season at the globally recognised cultural, shopping and dining destination in the heart of Soho. With its independent boutiques and London’s best dining spots dazzling under the glow of the Christmas lights, the iconic streets will be transformed for the season, blending festive tradition with the modern charm of Soho and capturing the true essence of Christmas in London.
Last year, Carnaby Street unveiled a ground-breaking, design-led Christmas lights installation. The new and colourful ‘All is Bright’ display marks the next chapter of the sustainable, state-of-the-art scheme, introducing a fresh and dynamic direction for the 2025 festivities. This year, the iconic Carnaby Street arches will also be decorated to create the perfect festive picture moment. Blending timeless tradition with the creativity and vibrancy that define Soho, the lights ensure visitors and Londoners alike experience the very essence of Christmas in the capital.
Shopping and dining event: 4pm - 8pm
Lights switch on time: 6:45pm
