Christmas lights in Madrid
The magic of Christmas
turned into light
The Christmas lights in Madrid are a spectacle that captivates both locals and visitors during the festive season. Madrid at Christmas is filled with light, colour and joy, creating a magical atmosphere in every corner of its streets and around its buildings. At Ximenez Iluminación, we are proud of being the company responsible for Madrid Christmas lights for the past 50 years.
Madrid is a city that stands out for its diversity of cultures, its cosmopolitan character and its unique personality. For this reason, each square and street has a special design, complemented by the Christmas markets throughout the city, making Madrid a truly unique destination and a Christmas spectacle worth visiting.
Christmas lighting projects
in Madrid
One of the busiest and most important areas of the city, Gran Vía, transforms every Christmas into a dazzling display of Christmas lights and illumination. The brilliance and creativity of the design we install each year create an unforgettable festive atmosphere for all those who walk through its streets. A famous feature of Madrid’s Christmas is the large walk-through ball we install at the intersection of Alcala Street and Gran Vía, with a light show for the enjoyment of passersby.
Each square and street have a special design that makes them unique
Puerta del Sol is another must-visit place to enjoy the Christmas lights in Madrid. Each year, Ximenez Iluminación install a giant Christmas tree, which becomes the focal point for both local and visitors. The lights that form it, along with the exclusive project designed specifically for this location, make it one of the main meeting points in Madrid at Christmas and one of the most iconic sights of the season.
Plaza Mayor, with its historic architecture and traditional charm, enhances its beauty with Christmas lights and decorations made and installed by Ximenez Iluminación.
The Christmas lights in Madrid fill the city’s balconies, facades, and arches, adorned with garlands, rosettes and exclusive motifs, creating a fairy tale scene.
In addition to the most iconic places in the city centre, the different neighbourhoods of Madrid also dress up with their own Christmas lights. From the shopping streets like Preciados to the cozy corners of neighbourhoods such as Malasaña, La Latina o Chueca, each place has its own charm, reflected in its atmosphere and Christmas lighting, with Ximenez Iluminación present in every corner.
