The Oxford Christmas Light Bus

Background

THE OXFORD CHRISTMAS LIGHT BUS!

This December, Oxford will be alight with festive cheer as the Christmas Light Bus travels through the city’s streets – and you can vote now to help decide where it stops.

In partnership with Get Radio, Oxford Bus Company and City Sightseeing Oxford are delivering this magical event, bringing joy for all ages.

The open-top City Sightseeing Oxford bus will be decked out with hundreds of shimmering lights as it winds its way around Oxfordshire. A festive soundtrack of Christmas classics from Get Radio will add to the atmosphere.

At each chosen stop, our team will spread Christmas cheer and distribute treats – including vegan and gluten-free options – to both children and adults.
