For the seventh year in a row, beautiful Gypsy Hill Park's 214 acres will be aglow with holiday lights, from the Monday after Thanksgiving through the first week of January in the New Year, each evening from 5:00 – 11:00. This event is free and open to the public.

It's a festive attraction that has appealed to both local and out of town visitors.  Tens of thousands of cars drive through the displays every year.

Display A Deer! Honor Someone

The light display is organized by a group of community citizens who have found a way to utilize the beauty of the sprawling park during a season that brings families and friends together.  If focuses on strong community values that all can enjoy regardless of age, background or religion. With Staunton’s status as a tourist destination still growing,  the Celebration of Lights is another way to bring people to the city, or to enrich their experience while here, and to demonstrate the community spirit of Staunton's residents.

The Celebration of Holiday Lights invites local groups, businesses and individuals to design and mount seasonal light displays along the park's scenic roads.  Each group or individual is assigned a small area to decorate and is provided with a source of electricity. 

The Celebration of Holiday Lights is made possible by donations of effort and resources by its sponsors.  If you enjoyed the lights presentation, please take time to express your appreciation to the sponsors (Sponsor List).

Those who participated by building light displays for the celebration are individuals, firms and organizations who work to make the Staunton holidays brighter.  The list of  participants is online.
