Lights, Camera, Action!

Perth's Christmas Lights went on with a bang! Our friends and local super talented Photographers - Jack, Cain and Ian went out and snapped all the action!

Taking you from afternoon into evening, The Christmas Light’s Switch-On had something for everyone - three big stages, entertainment-packed streets and an array of tasty treats and street food awaited as we prepared to countdown to Christmas 2016. Big stars graced the main stage such as Fleur East, Professor Green and Slade bringing festive cheer and a right good sing-a-long!

And of course, all of this festive fun was wrapped around a bustling, compact City Centre packed full of fantastic independent shops, big name High Street brands and an unrivalled choice of restaurants, eateries and bars.
