THE FORMBY village on 27 November was packed out despite the heavy rain and hail stones that lashed down at the start of the Christmas Lights switch on. Turning on the lights were the well known faces of Danielle Nicholls from CITV and the former star of Channel 4's Brookside, Rachael Lyndsay, who lives in Formby. Also on stage were Dune FM's John Cooper, cast from Her Benny, Becky Knight and Santa with his slay... The two stars hit the button that said
"4000 Volts..... BOOM!" on it to turn the village lights on.
Festival Lights Co-ordinator Peter Dunne said:- "The event not surpass it self every year and just gets better and better. Our aim is to raise the profile of Formby and to give it a Christmas Feel."
The main backers of the event is the Formby Champion who said
"It is a fantastic effort and we hope that now we are in the third successive year of the Formby Champion Christmas Lights Campaign, that we can build on and on to this campaign helping to make the village an even more vibrant place for shoppers over the Christmases to come."
If you missed this one or you liked it, you must not miss the Formby Dickensian Day on the 6 of December.
