Bentleyville Tour of Lights
Billed as America’s largest free walk-through Christmas light display, with millions of lights lit at Bayfront Festival Park.
The Bentleyville Tour of Lights runs each year from around Thanksgiving through late December at Bayfront Festival Park. Millions of colored lights form giant Christmas trees, tunnels, and fairy-tale figures. Admission is free, and free hot cocoa, cookies, and bonfires are provided. Santa Claus also makes appearances. Evenings are crowded and cold, so dress in a heavy down coat. Parking is paid, so it is recommended to stay at Canal Park and walk over.
Opening hours
During the season, about 5:00–9:00 pm
