Welcome to Mousehole Harbour Lights!
Welcome to Mousehole Harbour Lights! This is the official site for the annual Christmas lights that adorn the village of Mousehole, Cornwall. Started in 1963, the Mousehole Harbour Lights are switched on each December, illuminating the village until early January.
Fundraising and Volunteers
The Mousehole Harbour Lights Committee is run solely by volunteers, who help to raise money and maintain the lights ready for switch on. We are also only funded by donations and some small grants, which means that we are kindly asking people to donate what they can throughout the year.
You can donate safely online here and if you’d like to help at all, please get in touch here.
