As we welcome Christmas 2026 to the Fylde coast!

Lytham has the honour of the first switch on of the season, and the Lytham Christmas team is delighted to announce the line up!

Saturday 14 November promises to be a magical afternoon and evening of live entertainment, children’s rides, Santa’s Parade and festive fun for the whole family.

Starting at 1.45pm and running through till 8pm.

The Switch-On Show, hosted by Paul O’Brien, features a fantastic line-up including The deadBEATS, Boogie Bros, Kerry Rogers and Diane Lynn as Tina Turner, alongside a wonderful mix of local choirs, schools and entertainers.

Every performer generously gives their time and talent completely free of charge, helping to make this much-loved community celebration possible.

The big Switch-On takes place at 7 pm, with Lytham charity legends Live Like Ralph lighting up the town!

Come along, soak up the atmosphere and support our wonderful local shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants as we welcome Christmas to Lytham.
