Festival of Lights

This year on the 16 November, at 5.30pm the skies of Lancashire will be lit up by the festival of light at the Grand Venue in Blackburn. 

This is a combined Saffron Group event where business meets community and people of all faiths, backgrounds and diversities come together to celebrate an evening of fun and laughter together.

This year our headline sponsor is JP Morgan Bank. 

Khayyam Jummani of JP Morgan Manchester said: "As we expand our business in North, J.P. Morgan is deeply committed to supporting local communities in the North, recognising the importance of fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion to strengthen and uplift these regions."

 Ram Gupta (Nybble) said: "The festival of light is a symbol of all things that unite us.  The celebration on the 16th brings all communities, diversities and faiths together to laugh and smile together. If you haven’t been then we urge to attend and feel the warmth of a room full of warmth and celebration." 

Lancashire community foundation, who have sponsored another year, said: "We are delighted to be part of  the celebrations which support the most vulnerable in society, that too in a fun filled environment."

Lancashire Business View and the East Lancs Chamber of Commerce have added their support for the event.
‘In dark times we need a guiding light that shines through us onto others.’

Lancashire Business View is supportive of the Lancashire Festival of Light where business meets communities, and we all share great times together.
