The Worshipful The Mayor of Torbay advised that she had opened the Bay of Lights Illumination Trail, which was free and taking place throughout Torquay, Paignton and Brixham in December 2024.  The trail included a new Christmas Market and ‘Torre Abbey: Alive with Light’ projection show, which celebrated 800 years of Christmas traditions at the Abbey.  The Worshipful The Mayor of Torbay also encouraged Members to purchase an LED flower, which was part of the trail, as 50% of the proceeds would be donated to The Worshipful The Mayor of Torbay’s charities.
