Programs and Activities

Hop on the Parks and Recreation tacky lights tour bus and get ready for a dazzling holiday adventure! Enjoy catchy festive tunes as you explore the best-lit houses in Lynchburg. The tour lasts about 45–55 minutes, starting and ending at the Lynchburg Community Market. While you wait or after the tour, warm up with some delicious s’mores (weather permitting) and hot cocoa at the market! Check-in is by the fountain in the Community Market Plaza. Groups can have up to 10 people, but remember, kids under 16 need to have an adult with them. Don’t forget to register by 12/8.

And that’s not all! Be sure to swing by the Bright Nights display, just two blocks from the Market, either before or after your tour for even more holiday cheer!

Address must be within Lynchburg City Limits in order to be considered. Houses will be scouted the following week after 12/1. Decorative lights/displays must be active from 5:00pm–10:00pm during tour nights to be considered in the running.

Rain or shine, let’s make some festive memories! Just a reminder to bring only closed beverage containers—no alcohol or glass—and please, no food on the bus!
