Disappointment as Strokestown Christmas Lights won't be erected this year

Strokestown Christmas Lights Committee said it will be unable to erect the town’s Christmas lights due to ongoing streetscape improvement works.

In a social media post early today, the group made the announcement.

“Unfortunately, due to the ongoing streetscape improvement works in Strokestown, it will not be possible to erect the town’s Christmas lights this year,” the group said.

“While this is disappointing, we look forward to seeing the improvements to our town completed and to bringing back our Christmas lights in the future.” 

The group thanked everyone for their understanding and continued support, and wished everyone in Strokestown and the surrounding areas a very Happy Christmas.
