Ramsgate Town Christmas Lights

When Ramsgate Town Council’s Technicians put up the town centre Christmas lights in early November it was identified that there was an underground cable fault and no electricity supply to the lights. We immediately reported this problem to KCC and have continued to chase up on this repair every week. Despite KCC’s best efforts they have been unable to find the fault and the matter has been reported to UK Power Network, who are unable to confirm when this work might be addressed, and we fear that at this stage it will now be in the New Year.

The Christmas Lights have been working on a couple of occasions (for 'Ramsgate Christmas Fun Day' and ‘Late Night Shopping’), but that is because Ramsgate Town Council paid for a generator; unfortunately, this was an expensive way of doing things and not something that we could replicate every day.

And so, please may we apologise to the residents of Ramsgate for the Christmas lights not working this year, we have tried our best!
