The decorations were turned on by the area's Business Improvement District on Sunday.
Under normal circumstances, Falkirk would host a public switch-on ceremony, a visit from Santa and a reindeer parade in the run-up to Christmas.
This year, the BID has instead commissioned a festive video – to be shown across its social media platforms – which will include a nostalgic collage of previous events and a magical message from Santa.
