For a chic and classy look, these lights from John Lewis are ideal. Suitable for use both indoors and outdoors, they emit a classic white light, perfect for long meals outside during the summer. Granted, you only get 10 bulbs, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. When it comes to entertaining, sometimes less is more, and you know that the quality of these bulbs will be worth their price too. Festoon lights first became mainstream in carnival settings and in industrial settings, where there were generators that could create the large amounts of power that they needed. They were not only expensive to buy, but they were also expensive to run, and if a bulb was accidentally broken, it cost a lot to replace. Thankfully, today festoon lights are available to buy at an affordable price, for homes to use both indoors and outdoors – and replacement bulbs are much cheaper too.

When weighing up how bright you'd like your festoon light ideas to be, ask yourself what kind of vibe you're keen to curate. For some people, a dimmer or more dispersed lighting set-up might be better, particularly if you want romance, ambience or intimacy. That said, some options might prove a little too dim for the task at hand. For example, if you're hosting in the daytime and it's a little overcast, the solar options might not cut it. Of course, solar choices are kind on the environment. Have a penchant for sun-powered garden accessories? Go ahead and explore our guide on the best solar lights.

Having surveyed a fair few options out there, we would say that, generally speaking, most festoon lights are water-resistant to the degree required for use outdoors. However, it is worth noting that most are not entirely waterproof, so flooding or direct submersion underwater would not likely be covered. What is festoon lighting?

Running costs for festoons have been dramatically lowered by the use of LED technology, which requires much smaller amounts of power to create much more brightness – so your electricity bill isn’t impacted nearly as much as it once would have been! In fact, festoon lights can be completely free of electricity costs if they are intended to be used outdoors if you choose solar powered ones, which simply need the solar panel to be in the sun for a few hours, and they will run all evening. If you're after a strong and trusty choice, these lights from OxyLED are your go-to. Thanks to the plastic construction, this option is well suited to handle gusts of wind and accidents without smashing like the glass alternatives.

Offers 20m total cable length with room for 20 x light bulbs (sold separately). Can be used individually or connect up to 20 multiple lengths (total 400 metres).
