Hay Christmas Lights
Venue: Memorial Square, Hay-on-Wye
There’s no better way to get into the festive spirit than by attending the Hay-on-Wye Christmas lights switch on. Take part in an evening of carol singing, grab a warming mulled wine and some food, and enjoy the festivities that kick off the Christmas season in our booktown. The lights will be switched on at 6.30 pm by a special guest, soon to be announced, alongside Hay-on-Wye's Citizen of the Year.
The free switch-on event takes place in Memorial Square, and as well as food and drink stalls, visitors can enjoy the Hay School Christmas fete, a steam engine Santa drive-by, Hay Fire Brigade, Santa's Post Box, Window Spotting competition, and more. The event is co-hosted by Hay Town Council, Hay Chamber of Commerce and Hay Markets Ltd. Lighting up Hay for Christmas is made possible through the generous support of Hay's local businesses, individuals and funders.
