Ku’damm shines: Christmas lights saved!

Kurfürstendamm, 10623 Berlin, Deutschland - nag/nag editors -

The pre -Christmas period in Berlin is a real spectacle, especially on the famous Kurfürstendamm (Ku’damm) in Charlottenburg. Every year this main shopping street turns into a sparkling sea of ​​lights that makes the hearts of Christmas fans beat faster. But this year the festive lighting was on the brink. District Mayor Kirstin Bauch had announced that there would be no Christmas lights because the district could not provide the financial resources. This caused great disappointment among the residents and visitors who were looking forward to the festive atmosphere. How Berlin Live threatened to fall out in Charlottenburg, at least in part.

But the turn came faster than expected! On Friday, November 15th, it was announced that the toilet and sanitary provider will appear "Wölkchen" as the main sponsor. This means that 500 trees along the four and a half kilometer route are decorated with fairy lights within just two weeks. The opening ceremony for the integration of the lighting is planned for November 28th. This saves the festive Christmas season in City West and the anticipation for the glittering lights can begin!

Not all Berliners can look forward to the festive lighting. As rbb , there will be no Christmas lights on the street Unter den Linden this year.
