What a show!

On Saturday 7th November 2015, Manchester City Council, Key 103 and sponsor NaaNaa.co.uk, invited you to celebrate the start of Manchester’s Festive Season with an evening of high-energy entertainment in Albert Square.

Now the lights are officially on and the final firework sparks have faded away, keep checking back here for photos and more highlights from the evening.

Coronation Street star Kym Marsh helped Key 103's Debbie Mac and Alex James press the button on Manchester’s Christmas lights, along with some special friends from the world-famous soap (including a musical performance from Catherine Tyldesley).

Heading up the musical performances, were indie-pop favourites Scouting for Girls. Their first new album in three years 'Still Thinking About You' was released recently and their brilliant performance at the Manchester Christmas Lights was just a taste of their latest UK tour which arrives in Manchester at the end of November.

UK R&B singer-songwriter, Lemar - two time Brit award winner and three time MOBO winner who has sold over 2 million albums and had 7 top ten hits - has just released a new album 'The Letter' and it was fantastic to witness his long-awaited comeback at the Manchester Christmas Lights Switch-on... such a talented guy.
