Falmouth Christmas lights switch on and Festive Weekend - everything you need to know

The Christmas activities will return to Falmouth this year with the lights switch on and the town's Festive Weekend.

Last year, Falmouth hosted a purely virtual Christmas due to coronavirus but the festivities are coming back in full force.

As confirmed by Town Manager Richard Gates, the Christmas lights will be switched on 25th November at 7pm on The Moor.

Festive Weekend 2021 will be on Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th December 2021 with the main activities taking place between 11am and 6pm on both days.

On the weekend there will be an ice rink, snowy streets, festive stalls, fairground attractions, a giant snow globe, and live choirs.

The event is a community-driven event, organised and funded by the Falmouth Town Team (Falmouth BID and Falmouth Town Council) so you can see street acts, listen to choirs or bands free of charge.

It is only £2 charge per person for the artificial ice rink, festive land train, adult swing rides, and the helter-skelter. It is only £1 a go for all other small attractions.

Any income received from the attractions contributes towards Christmas activities 2022.

There will be a road closure in operation (11am-7pm) on both the Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th December and Church Street Car park will be closed to traffic.

Local bands and choirs will not only be performing on The Moor, but will also be performing at various locations during the weekend.
