Mayor of Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council, Cllr Andrew Gowan, welcomed hundreds of residents from across the borough to the switch-on event, which saw The Grinch take to the stage. Anna and Elsa from Disney’s Frozen also provided entertainment with a singalong.
Pupils from Anahilt Primary School’s choir sang to the crowd before special guest, Santa Claus, arrived with the assistance of the popular ‘Grassmen’ at 7.20pm to conduct the big switch-on event.
