Join as we mark the start of the most magical time of year with the Chelsea Christmas Lights Switch-On on Saturday, 15 November 2025, promising an enchanting celebration for family and friends.

An afternoon of festive fun will see the King’s Road part-pedestrianised from Sloane Square to Walpole Street, featuring a Christmas market, roaming entertainment and a continual programme of performances across the main stage at Duke of York Square and bandstand on the King’s Road.

The full programme of entertainment:

At 5pm, Father Christmas will take to the main stage at Duke of York Square with his special helper, a local child in need of a treat, to switch on the lights, culminating in a celebration of lights, music and plenty of sparkle.
