Lights to be switched on as dark falls
Ramsey's early Christmas light switch-on helps support local business, according to its town centre manager.
Organised by Ramsey Chamber of Commerce and the commissioners, residents and visitors will see a start to celebrations outside the old courthouse at 2pm this afternoon.
The festive lights are expected to be lit at 4.30pm.
