Dates set for Alexandria and Dumbarton Christmas light switch-ons

West Dunbartonshire Christmas lights will be switched on November 27 and 28 the council has announced.

Alexandria's lights will be illuminated at 5.30pm on Saturday 27 at 5.30pm, with a fun-filled day of festive events kicking off at 1.30pm.

There will be lots to do for all ages with various festive activities such as Santa’s Grotto where youngsters can meet Santa and get their picture taken, elf workshops, balloon art, magic show, children’s fun fair and plenty more.

There will also be a host of live performances including Spice Girls and Girls Aloud Tribute acts.

The following day, Sunday 28, the fun will start all over again - this time on Dumbarton High Street.

It marks a return to celebrations after last year's big switch-on events were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic and strict lockdown measures - which forced the cancellation of all live events.
