Darwen Christmas Lights Switch On & Festive Markets 2025
Saturday 15th November 2025, 10am – 7pm
****HEADLINER JUST ANNOUNCED****
Get ready for one of the biggest festive celebrations in the region! This year’s Darwen Christmas Lights Switch-On will be headlined by none other than Kelly Llorenna – the powerhouse voice behind dance classics Heart of Gold and True Love Never Dies.
Following the record-breaking success of last year’s event, which saw K-Klass headline, Kelly will take centre stage in Darwen Market Square to lead the countdown to the big switch-on.
Kelly first rose to fame in the 90s as the lead singer of N-Trance, providing the unforgettable vocals for their chart-topping hit Set You Free. She’s since enjoyed a glittering solo career with hits including Tell It to My Heart and This Time I Know It’s for Real, and has recently wowed crowds on the Clubland Arena Tour.
Expect over 10 hours of festive fun for all the family – with live performances, festive markets, fairground rides, and even a special appearance from Father Christmas himself.
The event has been months in the making, and the full line-up is now confirmed, with even more exciting details to be announced soon.
Don’t miss the magic – join us in Darwen Market Square for a Christmas celebration to remember!
