The Shard Christmas lights display

London’s tallest building dazzles over the city every festive season and 2024 is no different. This year, The Shard’s uppermost 20 storeys will be illuminated with lights inspired by some of the UK’s favourite traditional Christmas songs, including ‘Jingle Bells’, ‘The Twelve Days Of Christmas’, ‘We Wish You A Merry Christmas’ and more. Each carol is represented by a 15-minute light sequence that will repeat every hour in the lights’ 5:30pm to midnight run time.
