Citizen magazine Winter 2024 - text version - Festive light switch on
Published: 6 December 2024
Festive light switch on
Crowds gathered outside City Hall to enjoy the Norwich Festive Lights Switch-on in November.
The event included performances by local stars, Leon Mallett and Juliet, along with panto fun from Triple Threat Theatre.
Owen Evans, Norfolk’s very own comedy legend, switched on the LED lights powered by renewable energy.
Attendees enjoyed a brass band, market stalls, and a funfair, celebrating the start of the festive season with sleigh- loads of community spirit.
Council cabinet member for a prosperous Norwich, Cllr Claire Kidman said: “Our Festive Lights Switch-on has yet again been the perfect way to celebrate this wonderful time of year, and look back on a busy year for the city events schedule.
“It is fantastic to see that next year is already bustling with plans for cultural and entertaining events in and around the city, whether they be organised by the city council, our fantastic city partners or held in one of our beautiful parks.”
