It is recommended to give the local authority up to 4 weeks for an application to be processed. Applicants should look to apply for a Christmas Lights Licence between October and November to have the licence approved in time for December.

The duration of a Christmas Lights Licence will be determined by the local authority. In most instances, a Christmas Lights Licence will be for a specific period of time, not exceeding 3 months.

No. You do not need a Christmas Lights Licence for your house or property. A Christmas Lights Licence is only required if Christmas decorations will be erected from public lampposts and across a road.
