This event has already passed
Regent Street has thankfully moved away from the Christmas lights they used to have with adverts for blockbuster movies, and returned to the more traditional white lights with giant angels floating over the road (known as the 'Spirits of Christmas').
But they've also dialed back on the operating hours to save a bit of energy, meaning they'll only be lit between 2 PM and midnight, and they've done away with the switch-on ceremony as well - so this year's big moment will be a rather low-key affair.
