Great Malvern and Upton-upon-Severn have announced the dates for their annual Christmas lights switch-on celebrations. Malvern's event will take place on Friday, November 21, whilst Upton-upon-Severn's celebration follows a week later on Friday, November 27.
In Malvern, Santa will parade along Church Street at 10am before heading to his grotto to meet visitors. The main event will gather momentum from 5.15pm, when a parade makes its way up Church Street towards Belle Vue Island. The Christmas lights will be officially illuminated at the BBC Hereford and Worcester Stage, with the switch-on ceremony hosted by Tammy Gooding.
Upton's festivities will begin at 5pm and continue until 7pm, with family-friendly entertainment planned throughout the evening. Around 1,000 people attended the inaugural Upton switch-on event in 2025, and organisers are hoping for another strong turnout this year. Both events are expected to attract thousands of visitors across the Malvern Hills area.
