DEFINITELY RED NAIL POLISH
COVENT GARDEN, PIAZZA

Covent Garden, renowned for living statues and fire-eaters, cobbled piazza and market buildings are irresistible yesteryear visions for all who imbibe the spirit of the season. This year’s mistletoe theme, with 50 new lighting arrangements over this pretty-as-a-picture area of historic London, couple the added charm of a glowing red and white lit tree on the west side of the square and majestic silver reindeer, rising above a cascade of gifts on the east side. For added festive cheer, why not take a ride on the Santa Express train, made with 500,000 Lego bricks with lights, sound and smoking chimneys; you can see this happily chugging down the north east corner of the piazza.

PINK NAIL POLISH
THE STRAND, CHARING CROSS CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

The Strand, the Northbank area of London that was the first to enjoy electric street lighting, together with the Savoy Theatre, the first public building in the world to be lit entirely by electricity, more than 100 years ago, return with yet another spectacular lighting display this year!
Those sparkly glowing baubles are back for a third year, on Oxford Streets thoroughfare. 1778 snowball-like decorations, with 750,000 LED lightbulbs, light up the street for the fifty-sixth year of decorating London’s most visited shopping arena.
