The switch on hosted by Plymouth City Council in association with Heart FM has been cancelled due to forecast galeforce winds and torrential rain. The stage event is due to be rescheduled for another date before Christmas. The lights will still go on at 6pm Plymouth City Council has said.
Late night shopping will still go ahead, Santa's Grotto, The Ice Rink and The Armada Way Christmas market and Drake Circus Shopping Centre will still be open until 8pm.
So if you are looking to start your Christmas shopping, get a few extra bits, or simply want to take the family for a great night out, head into Plymouth City Centre for what will be a great start to the festive season.
