Lighting up Luton for Christmas 2024
Christmas comes to town!
Our annual Christmas lights switch-on, Lighting up Luton for Christmas, is returning on Saturday 23 November 2024. Come along and enjoy an afternoon of entertainment and live music, in partnership with Luton BID and Luton Point.
Our special guest this year is Bluey, funded by Luton BID. In addition, Luton Point will open their Enchanted Forest Grotto on the day from 10am, so that you and your family can:
- meet Father Christmas in his log cabin
- enjoy a festive craft
- have a photo on the Woodland Throne
We promise you some great outdoor entertainment and live music on the day, from 2pm until the light switch-on at around 6pm.
More details are below and through our social media channels (see links in the footer).
Grotto session dates
- Every weekend from 23 November
- Daily from Saturday 21 December until Christmas Eve
- Quiet sessions each Sunday from 10 to 11am, offering a quieter, more relaxed environment as most of the shops won’t have opened yet.
Entry is free if you spend £20 in stores at Luton Point or make a donation to charity.
Activities and entertainment
- Bluey meet and greet (funded by Luton BID)
- Face painting (funded by Luton BID)
- Christmas carol singers and performances throughout December at Luton Point
- Prayer tree and nativity during December at Church Street windows at Luton Point
More entertainment and performances will be announced shortly, please check back soon. The full stage programme will be confirmed nearer to the time.
Lighting up Luton for Christmas is possible thanks to sponsorship through our airport company, Luton Rising. Thank you also to Luton BID for event support.
