Christmas lights switch on
8th Noveber: Christmas officially starts tomorrow in Bristol. Cabot Circus will switch on its Christmas lights. I was there last years "switch on" event and I can tell you Cabot Circus gets very busy. There will be people hours before the procession starts, standing on the balconies, intending to see the whole performance from the best perspective possible.
As far as I can see, Cabot Circus Christmas event organisers love Disney, or at least folk tales. Last year, it was a Peter Pan-themed event, this year it's Cinderella's turn. Suzanne Shaw, a 32-year old English actress, singer and television personallity known for winning the talent contest Popstar, will perfom as Cinderella at the Hippodrome show until 5th January, and lead the procession of tomorrow which starts at The Galleries at 5.30pm. It will then go through Broadmead, until it gets to the interiors of Cabot Circus. Music, acrobats, singers and dancers will entertain us until the Christmas lights will be switched on at 6.20pm and we will able to officially start buying Christmas presents.
Hope the switch on and festive period went well. Is there much planned for this year as Christmas isn't too far away?
ReplyDeleteHello and thank you for the comment!
DeleteIndeed Christmas is not too far away now. Restaurants have been accepting Christmas bookings for months! LOL
I am not officially aware of any event yet but Broadmead makes a big deal of the Christmas light switch on every year so I suppose there will be another similar event beginning of November. I will keep you posted! :)
