Update on Ringwood's Christmas Lights

We have continued to work hard behind the scenes today and have received assurances that the remainder of the town’s Christmas lights will be installed tonight (5th December).

Whilst we do not expect this will draw a line under the matter—there will be important discussions to be had in the New Year—we hope that after tonight we will have a complete and festive display. Our goal remains to ensure that the town looks its best, encouraging everyone to visit and support our local businesses.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

Ringwood Town Council Statement on Christmas Lights Display

Ringwood Town Council is deeply concerned that this year’s Christmas Lights Display falls far below the standard expected. The appointed contractor failed to complete installation in time or to meet the specification.

The contractor is being pressed to resolve the deficiencies as soon as possible. The Council is looking to its legal remedies under its display contract. Further information will be given as soon as it is clearer what will be done.

In the meanwhile we share the disappointment of residents.
