Are you ready for the most wonderful time of year? Mark the start of the festive season and join us on Saturday 26th November for Princes Risborough’s annual Christmas Lights Switch On event!
Spanning across three-hours from 15:00-18:00, the event offers our community and residents from neighbouring villages an opportunity to come together in a joyous harmony.
You can expect an afternoon filled with live performances from local acts, themed roaming street characters, festive food and drink vendors, and opportunities to ice skate, meet Santa, and get a bit of early Christmas shopping in with High street retailers, small businesses, and commercial vendors.
All ages can enjoy an inflatable Snow Globe and meet an animatronic polar bear, perfect for getting that Christmas Card photo! Additional music from the Ellesborough Silver Band and Princes Risborough Ukulele Group will appear along the High Street throughout the afternoon as well as roaming festive characters.
Food and refreshments from local vendors will have a vast array to keep you well-fed and watered, including stalls offering mulled wine and cider, gourmet burgers, crepes and waffles from local retailer La Crepe Escape, authentic Roman style pizza from Olivero’s UK, and gluten free pasta and dutch pancakes from Pasta and Pancakes.

Local craftspeople will sit alongside artisan producers and businesses to provide the perfect opportunity to purchase stocking fillers and Christmas gifts from small businesses, commercial vendors, and High Street retailers. The festive afternoon is the perfect opportunity for High Street retailers and hospitality, local businesses, organisations, and charities to build their own profiles and raise much needed funds for their own projects.
Within the final hour of the event, our Christmas Lights will be switched on by Kian Zomorodian as Aladdin and Melanie Elizabeth as Princess Jasmine from the Aylesbury Waterside Theatre’s pantomime performance.
We would like to thank Michael Grahams for their continued support of this event as our main sponsor. We would also like to give special thanks to Swish Fibre who have generously sponsored all of the entertainment elements for this event meaning all Council sourced entertainment will be free of charge to enjoy (this includes Santas Grotto, Ice Rink, Snow Globe, Polar Bear, roaming characters, and Ellesborough Silver Band).
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
