Enjoy the magic of the Christmas Lights Switch-On in a calm and crowd-free setting.
Experience the wonder of the Christmas lights with no flashing lights, no loud noises, and no large crowds.
This session is designed to offer a more relaxed environment for children and families who may find busy events overwhelming.
To help us maintain a calm atmosphere, we kindly ask that only families who would benefit from this quieter experience attend this session. There will be plenty of opportunities for everyone to enjoy the main switch-on later in the evening.
Schedule:
Christmas Village opens: 3:45pm
Family sing-along show: 4:00pm
Lights switch-on: 4:30pm
Event ends: 4:45pm — allowing time to leave before the main crowds arrive from around 5:30pm
A drop-off and pick-up zone will be available on the Parade Eastern Arm for this session.
