Yesterday the 12th November It was the Christmas light switch on in Manchester. I have never been to this event before, which is shocking because iv lived here my whole life...
anyway it was a great event, and the rain even stopped (for once) they had celebrities perform, the likes of Alexandra Burke and Mr Hudson (guy who sang with Kanye West) and the delightful little Hollie Steel from Britains Got Talent sang. As well as these, the manchester choir sang a dance song, which was quite brilliant but odd and the Mayor of Manchester made an appearance. I didn't know that it was made such an event of, but the atmosphere was amazing, all sorts of people went, and it was entertaining for everyone. At the end there was a spectacular fireworks display above the town-hall (even better than bonfire night at Platt fields park) and obviously all the lights were switched on, which was beautiful as ever.
