Thousands of people thronged the famous old streets of the capital to see the big switch-on happening...
While to some it still feels too early to be celebrating or even thinking of Christmas, this video featuring the switching on of the Christmas lights on Grafton Street and Henry Street in Dublin is sure to get you feeling fairly festive.
Guests of honour on the day were The Original Rudeboys, Laurence Kinlan aka Elmo from Love/Hate and the cast of this year's Gaiety Christmas Panto, Peter Pan.
ORB belted out a couple of catchy tunes and Laurence Kinlan said a few words, but would not mention anything about the sixth series. Believe us when we say, we pried...

After watching all that, we can't help but say 'it's beginning to feel a lot like... you know yourself'.
