SUMMARY:Christmas Lights Switch On 2021 & Christmas Markets
DESCRIPTION:Blackburn with Darwen Council, Darwen Town Centre and Darwen Town Council are thrilled to be bringing you a weekend of festive cheer and family fun, for Darwen’s Christmas lights switch on 2021.\n\n**Lights will be switched on at 6pm.\n\nThe celebrations will begin at 11am on Saturday 20th, when Crafty Vintage’s Christmas Markets officially open. You can expect an enticing array of crafters, makers and collectors, including some of our very own Shop Darwen businesses.\n\nAlongside the Crafty Vintage Christmas Markets will be a variety of free entertainment from 2pm – 6pm, including local singers from Darwen School of Music, gifted dancers from Lancashire Dance Academy, and a magical theatrical performance of The Greatest Christmas Show by Just Imagine. The entertainment will be compered by acclaimed burlesque singer, Kiki Deville.\n\nThen it will be time for our incredible headline act…\n\nBoyz On Block is a boyband supergroup with heaps of talent. This gifted group is made up of four of the biggest names in the UK and Ireland’s boyband history: Shane Lynch from BoyZone, Ben Ofoedu of Phats & Small, Abz Love from Five and Dane Bowers of Another Level. Boyz on Block have sold a whopping 789 million records and had 10 number one hits between them, they’re a powerhouse of serious talent and energy.\n\nThey launched their first single together last year, the Christmas classic of Stay Another Day by East 17. You can expect to hear this from the Boyz, along with a few more musical treats, while they help us to switch on the Christmas lights and flood Darwen with festive cheer. It’s an experience that’s not to be missed!\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter Boyz On Block has dazzled the crowd, the Crafty Vintage Markets will remain open until 8pm, so you can enjoy an evening browse while warmed by our newly illuminated Christmas lights and background vocals from Kiki deVille.\n\nCelebrations will continue on Sunday, when the Christmas Markets will be with us on the Market Square between 11am and 4pm.\n\nThis will be a memorable weekend of joyful Christmas celebrations and entertainment in Darwen that the whole family can enjoy.\n\nBlackburn with Darwen Council, Crafty Vintage and Darwen Town Council cannot wait to welcome you all onto the Market Square on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st of November.\n
