New Christmas Lights For Godalming

The new set of Godalming Christmas Lights, kindly sponsored by local organisations in 2010, will create another dazzling display for Godalming Town Centre. Glittering icicle lighting transformed Bridge Street, Wharf Street, Queen Street, the High Street, Church Street and up towards the High Street’s junction with Flambard Way.

The lights combine new LED and more eco-friendly bulbs and are sponsored by local organisations and businesses.  They will be officially turned on for the 2011 Christmas Festival at 17.00pm in a special ceremony.

Sponsorship opportunities

Godalming’s Christmas lights have been paid for by a large majority of independent traders and a major sponsor, The Charterhouse Club.  Tim Herdman-Grant the Club's Manager said “we are delighted again to be involved in the Godalming Christmas Festival and light switch on. Come down and see us at the Christmas Market along with Eagle Radio’s Love Crew and find out what Charterhouse or call us on tel 01483 239600".

A big thank you to the following organisations, whose major contribution have made the Christmas Lights possible. There are still sponsorship opportunities and if you are interested in supporting Godalming's Christmas Lights, please email Ian Thomson

We are still looking to raise contributions and sponsorship to cover the ongoing cost of the lights and are offering organisations a sponsorship package. This includes free publicity for their organisation in the Christmas Festival’s various promotional campaigns (press, web and the Festival programme) in 2011 and 2012.  For more information, contact Ian Thomson

The Godalming Christmas Lights have been a joint initiative between the Godalming & District Chamber of Commerce, Godalming Town Council, the newly formed CIC Godalming Together and Waverley Borough Council
