Festive Spirits Return to Piccadilly

Beginning 7 November, these dazzling lights, crafted by James Glancy Design Ltd., create a magical canopy of sparkling spirits soaring above Piccadilly, Jermyn Street, and Regent Street St. James's.

Kicking off with a sing-along and countdown on the Piccadilly Lights— with to St James’s London in partnership with London West End, Landsec, HOLBA and The Crown Estate—a special animation will mark the start of festive lights across London’s West End.

Stroll from Piccadilly Circus and soak up the magic as Jermyn Street, St James's Market, and Regent Street sparkle with seasonal lights. Whether you're a London local or visiting, the breathtaking ‘Festive Spirits’ are a must-see! Capture a festive selfie, tag @london.westend, and you may be featured on the official London West End channels.

Whilst strolling in Piccadilly, stock up on gifts for loved ones by visiting The Christmas Shop, newly opened Fortnum’s, brimming with magical treats, from mince pies and tall tins of Merrilossus to advent calendars and bespoke hampers. More luxury awaits at Burlington Arcade, home to the finest boutiques from prestigious jewellers to the world’s most celebrated perfumers. This winter, it also showcases a unique 007 experience – The 007 – in homage to the 1964 classic film Goldfinger.
