Poll: Are you planning to deck your home with Christmas lights this year?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Auckland’s iconic Franklin Rd Christmas lights will not go ahead in 2020 with organisers deciding to pull the plug due to Covid-19.

Christmas revellers have marvelled at the extensively decked-out houses on the Freemans Bay street for the past 27 years, with recent years’ festivities attracting around 150,000 visitors in the lead up to Christmas Day.
