Join us for this year's Christmas Lights Switch On event - Friday 21st November, from 4.30pm!
Marking the start of the festive shopping season, come and celebrate with the Newmarket community.
This year we're proud to welcome a local hero to turn on the lights, which is none other than Mark O'Reilly. After receiving numerous votes for his work with the youth community over the past 30 years, we're proud to be giving back to this wonderful individual and hope you'll join us in seeing him set our town alight this Christmas.
The High Street will close once again to welcome a family friendly funfare, local food stalls and plenty of shopping opportunities within our stores, restaurants and eateries.

5:05- Fairstead House School Choir
5:25- The Snow Sisters, Ice Master and Deliver, and our Snowman Friend
5:45- Vogue Athletics
