"I can’t wait."

The crowd will also be entertained by the Pavilion Theatre's Beauty and the Beastie panto stars and the Soul Nation Choir.

Ahead of the big switch-on at 7pm, Scottish singer-songwriter Nathan Evans will take to the stage with musical duo SAINT PHNX in an exciting collaboration.

With Glasgow’s Christmas lights switch-on drawing thousands of visitors to the city centre, road closures and parking restrictions will be in place.

Jacqueline McLaren, Glasgow’s Lord Provost, said: "The Christmas lights switch-on is a highlight in Glasgow’s cultural calendar.

"The entertainment at this year’s event is certain to lift the spirit, get us singing and make us smile.

"Then, when the lights burst on, we know Christmas is on its way."

Cassi Gillespie, the co-host of Bowie@Breakfast, said: "I love Glasgow’s Christmas lights switch-on every year.

"That is when I feel the countdown to Christmas really starts and with all the activities and performances we have planned this year in George Square, it will be impossible not to feel festive."
