From there the focus shifted down the brae to the Admirals, where local DJ Paul T was pumping out the tunes for a couple of hours from 4pm until 6pm.
The main event of the evening, the lights switch-on itself, took place on Jubilee Terrace.
After two years of Covid regulations, Portknockie residents were once again able to come along and appreciate the efforts of Portknockie Community Association and their colleagues in the community council in bringing the Millennium Garden to life with a Christmas tree and lights displays.
Although there was no formal switching on ceremony, the good folk of Fochabers were also delighted to welcome back their festive lights display situated mainly on High Street and outside Bellie Church.
Buckie's Christmas lights were the first to go on in the area, the switching on ceremony forming the finale of the Christmas Kracker event.
