Greenwich Market's Christmas Lights Switch On

Christmas festivities in Greenwich Town Centre kick off this year with the 'switch on' of Greenwich Market's Christmas Lights on Friday November 30th with the emphasis on entertainment for parents and children running between 3pm – 7pm.

The lights will be switched on at 5pm by the cast of Greenwich Theatre's pantomime 'Dick Whittington' bringing the magic of Christmas to the Market square and the town centre. Other interactive activities include The Arts Collective workshops, craft making and face painting and hair design.

Father Christmas will be taking time out from his busy schedule to be there from 3pm with FREE presents for all the children, but the grown ups need not worry - there will be FREE mulled wine courtesy of the regular market fruit juice stall 'Ye Olde Drink Co' Mince pies have been pledged by Marks and Spencer (tbc).
