Newquay Lights Up: Late-Night Shopping, Fireworks, and Festivities This Friday

Newquay is gearing up for a night of Christmas cheer as late-night shopping coincides with the highly anticipated Christmas light switch-on this Friday, 29th November. The event promises a mix of retail therapy, festive food, and a celebratory atmosphere centred around the Killacourt.

Shop Till 8pm and Enjoy Festive Treats

Many of Newquay’s shops will extend their hours until 8pm, providing a perfect opportunity to tick off your Christmas list while soaking in the seasonal buzz. Visitors can grab a hot chocolate or mulled wine before heading into town for a unique evening of shopping and entertainment.

Among the highlights, Newells Travel invites shoppers to browse last-minute winter sun deals while enjoying a mince pie and mulled wine. Meanwhile, Choukuette is offering pre-ordered Tartiflette and sweet treats to add a delicious twist to the evening.

Live Music, Cocktails, and Stunning Views

The festivities continue at Steam Bar and Restaurant, where a Christmas bonanza awaits. Shoppers can explore stalls, sip mulled wine, and enjoy live music from Bow River. Over at Project 83, visitors can step into a winter wonderland with Still Dizzy performing in the cosy courtyard, complete with mulled wine and cider from Elseafood.

For those looking for a view of the fireworks, Baggiebettie offers a prime spot, complemented by mulled wine and free pretzels.

Gift Shopping Galore

Late-night shoppers can also stop by Silver Breeze for precious gifts, The Card Factory for Christmas must-haves like flashing spinners, and Clemo Books, which will stay open to help you find the perfect literary gift.

The festive spirit extends to The Cornish Sweet Shop, which is ready to cater to sweet-toothed shoppers, and Ginger and Joe, where a brand-new festive menu and cocktails will launch that night.

Saturday Surprise at Sprout Health Foods

Although not open late on Friday, Sprout Health Foods will join in the merrymaking on Saturday, staying open until 9pm to keep the festive momentum going.
