When the sun goes down, keep the patio, pergola or garden ready for people to enjoy.
You’ve spent time making your outdoor space somewhere you actually want to be — comfortable seating, a table for dinner, perhaps a few plants and decorations. Then evening arrives and the whole area disappears into darkness.
You don't necessarily need floodlights. You need something that makes the space feel welcoming.
These Mains-Powered Festoon Garden Lights with ST38 Bulbs are designed for exactly that. Their traditional festoon style and 2300K warm-white glow add a softer, cosy atmosphere to patios, fences, gardens, pergolas and other outdoor areas. Instead of making the lighting feel purely functional, the visible ST38 bulbs become part of the setting.
With options for 50ft (15m) or 75ft (22m), you can choose a length that suits your space. The longer version has 32 bulbs, while the shorter version has 25, giving you flexibility depending on how much area you want to decorate.
Outdoor lighting needs to cope with more than a dry summer evening.
These lights have an IP65 weather-resistant rating, with shatterproof plastic ST38 bulbs designed for outdoor use. That makes them a practical choice when you want to leave your lighting setup in place rather than treating it as something that only comes out for one special occasion.
They're also mains powered, so there's no reliance on rechargeable batteries or sunlight. The UK plug makes them straightforward to connect to a suitable outdoor power supply, while the included cable ties help with positioning. You also receive five spare bulbs and a spare fuse, useful little extras when you're setting up lighting that you intend to keep using.
And because the system is linkable, you have the option to extend your setup when your outdoor space calls for more coverage.
The real change comes when you switch them on.
A plain fence becomes a backdrop. A patio becomes somewhere to sit after dinner. A pergola takes on a completely different character. Even an ordinary evening at home can feel more considered when there's a warm glow overhead.
These aren't designed to turn night into day — and that's precisely the appeal. They're about creating atmosphere rather than harsh illumination, giving your outdoor space a reason to stay inviting after sunset.
Whether you're preparing for summer gatherings, adding warmth to a patio, decorating for a seasonal celebration or simply want your garden to look better in the evening, these festoon lights give you a practical way to create that feeling without changing the space itself.

These were purchased to go outside of our home. They look lovely, and several neighbours are remarked how nice they look
Delighted with these light that I use often. Something reassuring about them plastic and not glass.
Really great set of lights that did exactly what we needed them to.
""These lights are perfect for seasonal decorations like Christmas or autumn! I love that they're weatherproof and shatterproof, so I don’t need to worry about taking them down in bad weather.""
""""The lights are nice but not super bright. They're perfect for smaller spaces, but for larger gardens, you may need more than one set. The bulbs are a nice touch and feel durable, though.""""
""I was looking for a simple and effective way to light up my backyard, and these lights did the trick! They were easy to plug in and hang up, and they’ve worked perfectly through several rainy nights.""
""""These lights really add a touch of elegance to my garden. I love the warm white light, and they're waterproof, so no worries about leaving them outside. Highly recommend!""""

""""I used these for my Christmas tree and the lights are lovely. They're warm and inviting, which is exactly what I wanted. My only complaint is that they don’t cover a very large area if you want to spread them out.""""

I love these, they are the perfect wall lights , they are stylish, look great, good price, and enhance the room, very happy I found them. They were well packaged too.
No communication at all even after receiving the wrong item in the first place, I have had to keep ringing constantly to resolve this this item was paid for nearly 3 weeks ago and still hasn’t been resolved still No Tree and no refund
No update on delivery forecast as to when and where item was. Item ordered on official site but came in an Amazon package. Give mixed signals of either fraud or delayed customer service. But overall the BNC wires was top of the market.
Perfect!
Very good one. Arrived fast. Easy installation.
Just the job, easy to install and look perfect
This is nice and bright LED light, but I hadn't realised that when it fails the tube cannot be replaced and a whole new light fitting would be required. However, it does have a 5 year warranty
This is a very bright light and having a slim design doesn’t look out of place in the hallway, landing or kitchen which is exactly where I have used them
An excellent replacement for older fluorescent tube fittings. Brighter than my old round fluorescent fitting. A cooler white, fluorescent was warm white this is a neutral white.
There is a trade off, fluorescent lights tend to provide more light around the edges meaning you get a more even coverage of light. LED lights tend to provide more of a point of light so slight shadowing in corners is observed. This effect is minimal and your eyes adjust.
Great to have more light generally with less electrical usage.
I bought it for my garage workshop. I listen to the radio when working, but as someone else mentioned, as soon as you turn the light on it interferes with the DAB signal and the radio turns off.
Annoying, but it's not possible to return as I have fitted it..
Totally loving the LED Ceiling Light in the kitchen. EVERYTHING is so nice and bright. It makes cooking so much easier, somehow. What I found you don't get too much shadowing in the kitchen as it somehow even outs the light to make it feel like natural light. Would I recommend? Hell, yes! especially for those who have suffer with SAD ... absolutely perfect.
Nice and bright, easy to install. Does not quite sit flush with the ceiling though which is mildly annoying. Other than that, works a treat and does the job. Good price and super fast shipping.
Delivery on time and light working as usual! However the watts(36) is too high for small rooms and is very bright. Can a dimmer switch be used to control the brightness of this product?
Everything was fast and the light was great and it illuminated the room excellently
Perfect for task areas and spotlighting details.
