About this event
Blue Badge holders are invited to enjoy a special drive-through experience in Ipswich town centre to see the Christmas lights from 6pm to 9pm.
Vehicles will enter the town centre at Major’s Corner (opposite the Regent Theatre), where tickets will be scanned by a member of staff and further details provided. Drivers will then continue westwards along Carr Street, Tavern Street and Westgate Street, offering a relaxed and accessible way to take in the festive displays from the comfort of their vehicle.
This is a free event, but tickets are limited and must be booked in advance for a timed slot. Only one ticket is needed per vehicle. To help make sure as many Blue Badge holders as possible can enjoy the event, please only book if you are confident you can attend.
Drivers must keep to a 5mph speed limit and will not be permitted to stop. Blue Badges must be clearly displayed in the front windscreen of the vehicle.
Please note: The main Christmas light switch-on will take place on 15 November. The lights can also be enjoyed by pedestrians throughout late November and all of December, until early January.
