The Lynchburg Macaroni KID top choice for the weekend before Thanksgiving is the Bright Nights Festival on the Bluffwalk and Tree Lighting at the Craddock Terry Hotel. This beloved Lynchburg tradition comes to downtown Lynchburg on Sunday, Nov. 24, 2024.
The Bright Nights Festival on the Bluffwalk begins at 5 PM on Sunday, Nov. 24. The Tree Lighting at the Craddock Terry Hotel takes place at 7 PM, and the festival ends at 9 PM. There will be many fun activities along the Bluffwalk and on Commerce Street.
As you wander among the festive light displays, you'll feel the spirit of the holidays and the wonder of the season that children of all ages enjoy. Find your way to Craddock Terry Hotel before the Tree Lighting at 7 PM, then enjoy a cozy drink at Shoemakers Patio!
This event kicks off six weeks of Bright Nights on the Bluffwalk, an immersive outdoor holiday light spectacle that lets visitors delight in the beautiful light displays, shop with food and artisan vendors, enjoy live music, pose at various holiday photo ops, and mix and mingle with friends and neighbors. Our favorite Santa, Old Fuzzy Face, will be there for the evening too!
The fun doesn't end when the festival ends on Sunday. The lights on the Bluffwalk and the tree at the Craddock Terry Hotel will be lit daily through Jan. 5, 2025.
You'll find details about parking, shuttle service, and more for Bright Nights Festival on the Bluffwalk at the Downtown Lynchburg Association website.
