Chris Underhill, from estate agents Prickett & Ellis, expressed excitement about the event, noting, "Our usual sponsors have stepped up ... which has allowed us a bigger splash of lights this year." He emphasized community support amid past funding challenges, mentioning how they've transformed a local tree into a Christmas tree, despite its unsavory appearance. Underhill reflected on past events, highlighting both local dedication and the festive spirit of Highgate as essential to revitalizing this annual tradition.
Highgate's Christmas Lights Switch on event will feature guests Andy Serkis and Lorraine Ashworth, with Alex Zane hosting. Ashworth, recognized for her roles in BBC's Sherwood and Alma's Not Normal, participates in this festive occasion intended to unite the community through shared holiday cheer.
The annual festive lights switch on, happening on Thursday, aims not only to brighten Highgate but also to foster community connections. Despite past funding threats, Haringey Council's involvement alongside local businesses helps ensure a successful event, showcasing resilience as key to this holiday celebration.
