Run and maintained by volunteers who are committed to be "The Best In The West" when it comes to towns Christmas lights displays. The Portishead Christmas Lights is run by volunteers. Each year local people from all walks of life give freely of their time and expertise to enhance the High Street area at Christmas time. This commitment continues throughout the year through regular meetings. Although the Christmas Lights receives a grant from Portishead Town Council, the majority of the £20,000+ annual costs are met from local fundraising. Over the years many local groups have generously chosen to raise money in various ways for the Lights. This is much appreciated and has helped us to pursue a process of continual improvement. Portishead Christmas Lights are put up, taken down and organised by 90 volunteers (approx!). In recent years there have been successful attempts to put on a bigger and better show than the previous year. Peter’s Church tower, new shops behind Lloyds Bank, and High Street extensions as far as Gordano School, Station Road, Harbour Road and Waitrose Piazza are all examples of improvments we have made in recent years. The Portishead Christmas Lights now represent a ‘Golden Mile’ of festive illumination

The Portishead Christmas Lights team help provide volunteer marshals at the Raft Race and the Carnival. Because we are good with ladders, we work with our friends Portishead in Bloom to put up summer banners in the High Street, and we put up and take down the bunting for the flower show.

PORTISHEAD CHRISTMAS LIGHTS – TREE OF LIGHT 2026

Remembering Loved Ones This Christmas

Christmas is a time for joy, togetherness and making memories, but we know that for many, it can also be a time to remember those who are no longer with us.

Our Tree of Light offers a special way to pay tribute to loved ones and keep their memories shining brightly throughout the festive season.

How can you get involved?

For a small fee, you can nominate a loved one to be remembered through our Tree of Light.

The names of those being remembered will be published in the North Somerset Times.

Names and photographs will also be displayed on a TV screen at a location to be confirmed.

Most importantly, our magnificent 15ft Tree of Light will sparkle brightly in the precinct, shining as a symbol of love, remembrance and cherished memories.

The Tree of Light will be switched on at our Portishead Christmas Lights Switch-On Event and will continue to shine throughout the festive season, with names and photographs displayed up until Christmas.

Every tribute helps make a difference. All proceeds go towards supporting the voluntary Portishead Christmas Lights Group and helping keep Portishead shining bright during the festive season.

Would you like to remember a loved one this Christmas?
