Truro's City of Lights Lantern Parade has been cancelled.
Organisers say they have struggled with funding in recent years, meaning the "much loved" event will no longer go ahead this year.
In a statement on their Facebook page, they say they hope they can make it happen for 2023:
"Thank you to all the sponsors, the public, Truro BID and Truro City Council who have previously supported Truro’s City of Lights Lantern Parade.
"Truro will however be celebrating the start of the Christmas on 18th November for Festive Friday, where the main event is Truro’s Christmas Lights switch-on.
"You may also see a few lanterns pop up in Truro and across Cornwall over the winter. For more information follow Truro City of Lights."
