Let us Light Up Your Night in Antrim and Newtownabbey

Get into the festive spirit this Christmas and join us for our Christmas Light Switch Ons across Antrim and Newtownabbey. There will be lots of free, festive family fun across the Borough from Wednesday 23 November to Saturday 26 November as we kick off the seasonal celebrations.

Hosted by top local radio presenters, the events will each feature an illuminating performance by Tumble Circus. Local talent will take to the stage including primary schools, choirs, musicians and dance academies to get you in the mood for Christmas. Santa will also make an appearance during the event alongside a special guest before the Christmas lights are switched on, lighting up the Borough for Christmas 2022! Events are as follows:

• Wednesday 23 November 2022, 6pm-7.30pm: Rathcoole and Mossley Mill

Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, Alderman Stephen Ross commented,

“Our Christmas Switch On events are a great time for everyone to come together as a community and get into the festive spirit. We have a fantastic line up organised this year and I would encourage everyone to join in the fun and help us light up Antrim and Newtownabbey for Christmas 2022.”
