DUDLEY’S official Christmas celebrations got off to a high-profile start with a celebrity guest to light up the party.
X-Factor singer Wagner was the surprise visitor at the town’s Christmas lights switch-on, which took place on November 22.
The star joined Mayor of Dudley Cllr Margaret Aston to throw the switch during a packed day of events which included live music and a show from wacky dance group Granny Turismo.
Cllr Aston said: “The turn out today was fantastic. The performers gave it their all and I’d like to thank them for the contribution they made to the day.
“It was a real privilege to turn on the lights for the people of Dudley and I wish everyone a happy start to the festive season.”
