Wonder which Z list celebrity we get this year. I do find it bizarre that we have proper celebrities such as the pram man. Yet we invite someone that came 6th in a past xfactor to do the switch on.

Anyone else see the start of what seems to be the Xmas decorations up in town? There's quite a few large gift boxes now hanging from lamp posts and in the Peace Gardens- and its still 3 weeks until Bonfire night... its just wrong!

The Sheffield Christmas Lights Switch On event takes place across the city centre on Sunday 18 November from 2pm to 6.30pm, with the illuminations getting switched on at 5.30pm from the Peace Gardens stage.

 

Our 2018 event will include choirs, Santa’s grotto, carolling, panto, street entertainment, Christmas markets, children’s tv and film characters, Christmas craft activities and fairground rides too. There is plenty for everyone to enjoy and get into the festive spirit.

 

Heart Yorkshire presenters will host the stage programme with a mix of Christmas music, entertainment and interviews. Our special headline switch on guests will be announced when the big day draws nearer....
