The spectacularly lit and decorated Christmas tree at Villa Zorayda during Nights of Lights

Nights of Lights Events

In addition to viewing all the lights, find out what else is happening this season.

Here, you can find all of the Nights of Lights events — all of the gatherings that celebrate the lights, Christmas, Hannukah, and New Year's Eve. The list includes events as local as the holiday markets and as vast as the New Year's Eve fireworks over the Atlantic.  

The Nights of Lights events are focused on the winter holidays after Thanksgiving, and all we do to celebrate them, including viewing the Nutcracker Ballet, the Regatta of Lights, and dining out on New Year's Eve. Nights of Lights always starts on the Saturday before Thanksgiving and continues through January 31 of the following year (or the Sunday just before that). December, in particular, is full of events to celebrate the season.

See our "All Events" list to discover the events that reach beyond the lights such as theater performances, art exhibits, improv shows, live music, car shows, and road races.
