The big switch on complete

BlackPool Lights 2025

Blackpool lights burn bright again

a tower dressed in fire and rain

the night alive the crowd stood near

the switch was pressed the glow was clear

Colours raced across the sky

a thousand sparks refused to die

streets of wonder bold and loud

a sea of faces one proud crowd

For four long months the glow will stay

through autumn nights and winter grey

a shining stream a beating heart

where every light becomes its art

The promenade a ribbon wide

with arches bright on either side

the wheels still turn the trams roll slow

beneath the beams that twist and glow

Faces lit by neon fire

each corner sparks a new desire

from north to south the magic runs

a town reborn when day is done

The tower crowned in vivid flame

each year it shines it calls the name

a coastal jewel that none forget

the brightest dream the season set

Through storm and chill the nights will glow

a timeless pulse the town will know

each flicker writes a memory made

then slowly fades yet will not fade
