City Hall in lights
Our LED lighting system at City Hall reduces our energy costs and allows us to light up the building in a variety of colours and combinations.
As City Hall is a Grade A listed building, it's mainly lit up in a white light, which is best for highlighting the building's beautiful architectural features. Dates when City Hall is lit in different colours are listed below.
