London’s Lights Lift-Off

Christmas is on its way! And at South Place Hotel, we think the best ways to immerse yourself in festive fun is by going to see one of London’s quintessential Christmas light turn-ons.

Grab your coziest scarves and woolliest hats and find out our favourites below:

 

  1. Carnaby Street

November the 7th marks our first light switch on, right in the heart of the West End.

The famous Soho street is the ultimate mix of cool concept stores and famous flagship locations.

Themed ‘into the light’, this year’s lights promise a dazzling display that captures the creative, rebellious spirit of Soho.

 

  1. Covent Garden

On the 12th of November you can head down to Europe’s ‘officially the best’ shopping district to witness giant décor including a 60ft Christmas tree, bells and baubles, and even an ice-skating rink.

 

  1. Leadenhall Market

Worried about the weather? Head to Leadenhall Market on the 14th of November and not only will you be transported to a Victorian style array of lights; you’ll also be under a roof!

This hidden gem features boutiques and big brands alike, and with 3 craft fairs occurring in the run up to Christmas, its the perfect destination for unique gifting.

 

Spitalfields

Head over to our neighbour, Spitalfields, for one of the season’s most enchanting events. Old Spitalfields Market’s Christmas light switch-on takes place on Wednesday, 13 November 2024, with festivities starting at 5:30 pm. Enjoy Christmas shopping, live festive music from the market’s gospel choir, and Christmas craft workshops—perfect for getting into the holiday spirit!
