This was supposed to happen THIS Monday (November 24th); however, with severe weather in the forecast, it's been cancelled, and there might not be a rescheduled date.
Rain may have canceled Bright the Night, but it can’t dim the holiday magic — downtown is still shining brighter than ever.
The safety of our performers, vendors and guests always comes first. With rain and potentially severe weather in the forecast, we made the difficult decision to cancel Monday’s event. While we’re disappointed we won’t gather for the tree-lighting this year, the season is still glowing strong in downtown Little Rock.
Our holiday lights will sparkle all season long, and the Holidays on Main Music Series will continue every Friday and Saturday through Jan. 3. Come stroll Main Street and the River Market, enjoy live music from 6–8 p.m., then warm up with dinner or drinks at your favorite local spot.
And don’t forget — the Little Rock, Arkansas holiday parade rolls through downtown on Saturday, Dec. 6, bringing even more cheer to the heart of the city.
There are still so many ways to celebrate, support local businesses and experience the magic of the season downtown. What're you looking most forward to this holiday season?
