Lee-on-the-Solent held its Christmas light switch on ceremony on Friday, November 30, a week later than it had been originally planned. Organisers will feel vindicated in their decision to delay the event due to forecast weather conditions as locals came out in force to enjoy the rearranged event.
The event featured entertainment including Christmas carols, live music, Santa meet and greets, local stalls and children’s amusements as well as the Christmas Light Switch On.
