The main Poulton Street was closed and lined with more than 40 stalls featuring a wide range of goods, while a festive procession dazzled with an array of performers, dancers and a visit from Father Christmas and The Grinch.
Santa's Grotto, elves, children's entertainers and face painting all featured, along with a snow machine and superheroes.
Heidi Hopkinson, owner of the Serendipity shop in Poulton Street and a member of the Kirkham Christmas Lights Committee, said: "We were thrilled to bring the magic of the season to our town through the Kirkham Christmas event.
“It was a spectacular celebration for the whole family.”
