Dazzling Christmas light switch on to make Portarlington even prettier
The most wonderful night of the year is here as the Portarlington Christmas Street lights are officially switched on this Friday evening, November 26.
The town looks amazing and well done once again to the Portarlington Business Association and Portarlington Christmas Street Lights for organising the lights and special switch on at 6pm leaving you plenty of time before the Late Late Toy Show starts.
If you are coming down to watch the switch on, the organisers ask that you please observe social distancing at all times. Alternatively, you can watch the switch on live on our Facebook & Instagram pages.
