Walking in a JQ Wonderland
Over 100 jewellery themed Christmas lights are lighting up the streets of the Jewellery Quarter this year. The city's largest lighting feature is also housed in the JQ - an impressive 3m x 3m Christmas Bauble - making it perfect for that Christmas selfie. There are also two 30 foot Christmas trees and 25 festive windows for you to admire.
The light switch on will be on Friday 15th November 2024 from 5pm until 7pm with a special guest to do the honours, as well as live music from The Dino Baptiste Boogie Woogie Trio and Elle-J Walters. You can also enjoy delicious vegetarian and vegan Indian fusion dishes from Notty Bites, alongside nibbles and drinks from Lunchi, Urban and Rose Villa Tavern.
