The tradition first started three years ago when one resident was diagnosed with terminal cancer

A Newton Mearns cul-de-sac has once again been transformed into Glasgow's most festive street to help raise money for charity.

Since then, the annual event has only grown in popularity, with minivans full of people arriving throughout December to see the display, an official switch on and even visits from Father Christmas himself. This year, all the money raised from the event will be donated to Cash for Kids, which supports children and young people affected by poverty, abuse and neglect.

They stay up until some point in the first week in January so there's plenty of time for people to come and visit. The street gets so busy, literally bumper to bumper traffic, but we all love it.
