In just a few hours, the City of London and London’s West End will be lit up with a fantastic light display, ready for the capital’s Christmas celebrations.

Then London will welcome a host of stars to Leicester Square, ahead of the glitzy world premiere of the new film,  Disney’s Christmas Carol.

We’ll also be trying to break the record for the largest number of people singing a Christmas carol at the same time!

And what carol will it be? You decided with our online poll (now closed). More than 1,000 of you voted, and the results are in:

  • Silent Night (with 33%, 359 Votes): winner!
  • O Come, All Ye Faithful (28%, 297 Votes)
  • God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen (13%, 135 Votes)
  • Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (26%, 281 Votes)

Thanks to everyone who took part in the poll, and enjoy the celebrations tonight!
