ticket info

We have been out & about Discovering the best lights & garden displays in Ashbourne...

Remember that inflatables will only be up in good weather and the timings of switch-on will vary house-by house.

Our favourites

From north to south our favourites are...

  • Windmill Lane
  • Northcliffe Avenue (off North Ave)
  • Ashbourne Town Centre is sparkling with lights on all the main streets and tree in the market place.
  • Green Man Yard is a forest of twinkling Christmas trees (walkers only).
  • Brookside Meadows (off Park Ave).
  • The manger (Park Rd traffic lights) is an Ashbourne classic, best viewed driving by.
  • Clumber Close (bottom of Premier Ave).
  • Derby Road (where the hill flattens).
  • Davenport Grove (off Harlow Way)

Best of the rest

So many to choose from but we think these are also worth a special mention...

  • Park Ave / Okeover Ave / St Oswalds Close
  • Chestnut Drive
  • Mumford Drive
  • Cavendish Drive /Stanton Rd / Lathkill Drive
  • Turnpike Way
