What are Festoon Lights?

A festoon was originally known as a ‘festal garland’ which would be suspended from two points. Festoon lighting or lights, also referred to as party lights, consist of large bulbs connected together with an electric cable and hanging in a garland style. These lights were first seen at funfairs. Festoon Lighting is not just for Christmas or that special event they can be used all year round.
