It is already a tradition that as Christmas approaches, the city of Vigo is filled with magic thanks to the Christmas lights. If you are looking for a family destination to have a great time, Vigo is the perfect destination for you. At Galicia Travels we bring you everything you need to know about 2024 and its Christmas lights.

This year there will be more than 11.5 million LED lights that will decorate a total of 450 streets and squares, something that has made Vigo one of the most impressive Christmas destinations in Spain.

As Abel Caballero pointed out, the precise date on which the lighting will take place will be “the best kept secret in Vigo” and, therefore, it will not be revealed when the Porta do Sol, the heart of Vigo, will become a year more in a setting full of colors and magic.

It is at this point where the Giant Christmas Tree is installed, which is more than 44 meters high, and has millions of lights that create an impressive visual spectacle.

All this, in a tree that will also be crowned by a star 20 meters in diameter, much larger than the one placed in other years and that will only increase its spectacular image.

Such is the size of the tree in question, that you can walk inside it, thus enjoying a unique experience, in addition to being able to get the best Christmas photo.

Additionally, this year the number of streets that will be decorated will be 450 streets. Therefore, more neighborhoods in the city will be decorated, making more people able to enjoy this spectacle of lights of Vigo. Todo ello, al tiempo que en este 2024 también contarán con figuras en 3D, algo que hasta ahora no había pasado y figuras con luminosidad más innovadora. Todo ello, con espectáculos también a nivel de sonido que harán de estos días algo inolvidable y realmente mágico.
