Burnham-On-Sea family unveils stunning display of 15,000 Christmas lights

This stunning display of more than 15,000 light bulbs, accompanied by Christmas music from a dedicated radio station, was unveiled in Burnham-On-Sea on Sunday evening (November 30th).

Keith and Jane Mitchell unveiled their electrifying display at the front of their Winchester Road home in front of a crowd of neighbours and onlookers.

"It's taken five months of work and planning, and we're delighted with the end result," Keith told Burnham-On-Sea.com.

The display has been topped off with music from the Mitchell's own short-range radio station, which is on air every night until January 6th from 5.30pm-9pm.

"We're broadcasting a line-up of Christmas music using a short-range transmitter on 87.5FM that's been specially chosen to match the movement of the lights, so people can drive up, tune in their car radio and both listen to and watch the display," added Keith.

The display, which uses low voltage LED lights to conserve power, has been put together with a good cause in mind since all money collected will be given to the Make A Wish charity.
