Collection at weekend for Christmas Lights

The annual street collection for the Kilcullen Christmas Lights will take place this Friday and Saturday 15/16 November. It is 22 years since the first fundraiser by Kilcullen Community Action to provide lights in the then village, and over those years many improvements have been made in both displays and more efficient technology.
Funding is still required to make the lights a reality, and KCA is hoping for a generous response to the volunteer collectors.
The lights will be officially switched on on 6 December, which is also the first Christmas Shopping in Kilcullen promotion day organised by the Kilcullen Business Group.
Our video above features the 2022 lights to the sound of Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah' performed by the Naas General Hospital Choir during that year's Carols by Candlelight concert.
