The festive season has really crept up on us Smiley news And while we look forward to visiting all the fun markets, we'd like to show some much-needed appreciation to the Christmas lights in Marylebone Village.
For the past two years, this Christmas light show has been a must-see for anyone touring London's iconic displays – and for good reason.
Aside from being in a well-known part of London known for its craft shops, the lights are sustainable!
While this little-known fact doesn't impact the viewing experience, it's especially important to see communities think about how they can make simple and quick sustainable changes that make a difference.
The lights have been expertly designed by Blachere Illumination UKan organization firmly committed to sustainable innovation, promoting circularity and reducing its carbon footprint.
In an exclusive quote from: “At Blachere Illumination UK, sustainability is at the heart of everything we create.” Marylebone village Display reflects our commitment to eco-friendly design, using energy-efficient lighting and responsibly sourced, recycled materials to deliver beauty with minimal environmental impact.”
Blachere Illumination's latest light installation reflects a commitment to sustainable design, made from recycled plastic bottles and illuminated with energy-efficient LEDs. In line with this environmentally conscious approach, Marylebone Village will only power the exhibition from sunset to 11pm, reducing overall energy consumption whilst maintaining the festive atmosphere.
The lighting display is available now through early January.
