LIGHT UP THE LANE (LUTL) 2023

Sunday 26th November 4pm to 7.30pm

LIGHT UP THE LANE 2023 (LUTL).

Light Up The Lane 2023 will be taking place on the 26th November from 4PM.

The Lane will be adorned with brand new lights and Christmas decor, alongside bringing back both stages, Christmas market stalls brought to you by local small businesses, a spectacle of Children’s rides. Plus, we hear Santa will be appearing at Brendon’s once again!

As you may be aware, we will take a break from both events in 2024. Yes, our small number of volunteers on the PCA Team are tired, but it also allows us to focus on both our grant and membership schemes. So join us and your local community to make the 2023 Light Up The Lane One to remember!

Pitshanger Lane is home to the shops and restaurants serving the Pitshanger area, and it was the Pitshanger Traders who started Light Up The Lane. Since 2001, the PCA has run the event in cooperation with the Pitshanger Traders. Shops in the Lane stay open, selling mince pies, mulled wine, samosas, candy floss and anything else that will raise money for charitable causes. Pitshanger Lane is closed to traffic and there will be entertainment up and down the Lane.

The tree lights - many thousands of them in the trees along Pitshanger Lane - are lit every evening during the Christmas period, cheering up the local area right through to twelfth night. Needless to say, the weather has a part to play in any open air event that takes place in the middle of winter. Over the years we've had just about everything - wet, dry, mild, cold and even artificial snow one year. However, Pitshanger residents and traders are a hardy bunch and turn out in their thousands whatever the weather.
