Carnaby Street, one of London’s most iconic shopping spots, has announced its new Christmas lights scheme for 2025.
The new scheme named All is Bright is set to illuminate Soho with a colourful look this Christmas.
On Thursday 6 November, Carnaby Street and the surrounding area will be transformed into a festive wonderland, brought to life by design specialists Sculptivate.
The scheme marks the next chapter in Carnaby’s five-year sustainable lighting programme which launched last year.
Visitors can look forward to dazzling installations, picture-perfect arches and fabulous festive backdrops for late-night shopping and seasonal celebrations in the heart of London.

While visitors may be drawn in by Christmas lights, Carnaby also boasts a list of iconic stores including Tala, Pureseoul, Farm Rio, Charlotte Tilbury, and GANNI.
Meanwhile, the balconies of Kingly Court, a three-storey dining destination with a range of restaurants, will be draped in lights to bring the Christmas spirit to every meal.
Carnaby Street is also set to release a range of festive events and activities in the lead up to the Christmas period.
Catherine Riccomini, director of marketing and communications at Shaftesbury Capital, said: “Carnaby Street has long set the standard for Christmas in London, and this year’s ‘All is Bright’ design takes our five-year lighting scheme to bold new heights.
“This colourful installation captures the joy and optimism of the season while reflecting the creativity and vibrancy that make Soho unique, ensuring an unforgettable festive experience for everyone who visits.”
