Here’s some information about Christmas shopping from the experience Guildford team: The Christmas lights switch on is 20th November. Working with Guildford Borough Council, this year Experience Guildford is bringing a little extra. A stage will be constructed outside Holy Trinity with a screen attached, there will be screens on the balcomy and a screen at the bottom of the High Street. There will be entertainment, reindeer and familiar characters throughout the town centre from midday. FYI, the High Street will be closed from 11am until 8pm that day.
