The countdown to Christmas in Kingston begins on Thursday 14 November when the Christmas lights are switched on and the Kingston Christmas Market opens its doors.

Come and get into the festive spirit, with plenty of family activities throughout the day before the main event at 6pm, when Kingston lights up into a festive wonderland.

This year, we’re delighted to say the lights will be switched on with a little bit of magic from the Rose Theatre’s Snow Queen, which opens on Thursday 6 December.
