Every Christmas, millions of people enjoy the magic of the season through the impressive light and colour shows that fill streets, squares and avenues around the world
Behind each of these Christmas lights that decorate half the world is Ilmex by Ximenez Group, the company that has managed to position itself as an international benchmark in decorative lighting.
Christmas lights for more than 50 countries
With a presence in more than fifty countries and over 250 cities across five continents, Ilmex has become the creative force behind many of the world’s most iconic Christmas lights. Cities such as Milan, Madrid and Vigo have entrusted Ilmex with putting its stamp on the millions of lights that adorn their streets during the festive season.
Each project developed by the company has a unique essence: it is not just about putting up lights, but about creating visual experiences that connect with emotions, reflect local identity and tell stories through lighting.

A boost for the local economy and tourism
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, Christmas lights have a direct positive impact on city life. They attract visitors, boost spending in local businesses and stimulate the economy during the Christmas season. Cases such as Vigo and other Spanish cities show how a good Christmas light display is not considered an expense, but an investment in attracting tourists.

Committed to sustainability
In an era marked by environmental awareness, Ilmex, together with its subsidiary Ximenez Group, has made a firm commitment to environmentally friendly technologies. For more than ten years, both companies have been leaders in the use of LED systems and low-energy solutions, such as their exclusive Ecogreenlux technology, which can reduce energy consumption by up to 60% and minimise light pollution by up to 93%.
Thanks to this commitment to energy efficiency, many cities can enjoy Christmas light displays without compromising their sustainability goals.
We transform light into art
Although Christmas is our big showcase for half the world, at Ilmex by Ximenez Group we extend our work throughout the year, participating in celebrations such as fairs, carnivals, parties and events. Our company offers creative and personalised solutions for every occasion, combining innovation, design and impeccable technical execution.
We consider each project an opportunity to create something memorable. Our passion for light and design drives us to transform common spaces into settings full of magic, colour and emotion. Because we believe that lighting is not just a technical task, it is a way of telling stories and awakening feelings.

Eight decades of excellence in artistic lighting
From its humble beginnings in 1945 in Puente Genil, Ximenez Group has evolved to become a global leader in its sector. With more than 80 years of experience, its strength lies in its ability to control the entire production process: design, manufacturing, assembly, dismantling and storage.
This comprehensive approach not only guarantees high-quality results, but also makes Ximenez Group a strategic partner for cities seeking to stand out through light.
Later, its international momentum came thanks to Ilmex, the subsidiary that has made the Ximenez Group name known across five continents.
Ximenez Group and its subsidiary continue to work to fill the most magical time of the year with light, generating excitement around the world, which is illuminated thanks to them, and turning Christmas lights into much more than a visual spectacle, into a celebration of creativity, tradition and innovation.
