Our very own George Bowie and Cassi will turn on Glasgow's Christmas lights again this year in George Square on Sunday November 19.

The event will be packed full of festive fun, including live music, sing-alongs, a choir, and appearances by some of the cast of Pavilion Theatre pantomime Treasure Island.

A ticket ballot for the 2023 Christmas lights switch-on will open on the Glasgow Life website from Wednesday October 18 until Sunday October 22.

The Glasgow Loves Christmas event will run from 4.30pm-7.30pm.

Glasgow’s Lord Provost, Jacqueline McLaren, said: “The switching on of Glasgow’s Christmas lights is always a special occasion.

"It’s one of the highlights of the year seeing families and friends gather to celebrate the start of the festive season in the heart of our city.”
