Ali Bates, Chair of Alderley Edge Parish Council, said, "We can't wait for this year's switch on—it's going to be something special. The Disney Princess and Father Christmas will be leading our countdown in a magical evening filled with market stalls and live entertainment.
"It's also a fantastic opportunity to support our local businesses and community groups who are here for us all year round. A great way to bring the village together and start the festive season."
London Road will be closed from 2pm to 9pm from the entrance of the Waitrose car park up to the corner of Chapel Road.
