The Holiday Lights Festival is expanding to north and south Omaha
Downtown Omaha’s Holiday Lights Festival is expanding to north and south Omaha.
Festival organizers announced the expansion this afternoon. Starting this Friday, trees will be lit on 24th Street between L and Q Streets in south Omaha and at the Martin Luther King and Love’s Jazz plazas at 24th and Lake Streets in north Omaha.
The downtown lights will be lit at a ceremony on Thanksgiving evening at 6 p.m. Mayor Jim Suttle will hold a brief lighting ceremony at south Omaha’s La Plaza de la Raza, near 24th and N Streets, at 7 p.m. on Friday.
At all three locations, the lights will turn on every evening through Jan. 8. The expansion was funded through an anonymous donor.
