Downtown Holiday Lights will be illuminated on Friday, November 4 with a lighting ceremony in Old Town Square from 5:30 – 7:00 pm by the City of Fort Collins. The lights are expected to turn on after a short countdown at 6:30 pm and will be lit every night from the first week in November through Valentine’s Day.
Every evening from the first week in November through Valentine’s Day on February 14, 22 block-faces of Downtown will be illuminated with thousands of strands of brilliant white lights stretching through the alleyways, sidewalks, and tree-tops of historic Old Town Fort Collins. The dazzling display of low energy and sustainable LED lights can be enjoyed anywhere along College Avenue, the northern boundary of Laporte Avenue and continuing south to Magnolia Street. Trees will be lit along Walnut Street, Linden Street, Pine Street, Old Town Square, Oak Street Plaza, and Mountain Avenue.
The Downtown Holiday Lights is a partnership between the Downtown Development Authority and City of Fort Collins.
