One of the most iconic holiday events, the Tree Lighting at Rio combines all of our favorite things about the holiday season into one fun-filled event! Kick your evening off with meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus while sampling delicious snacks from local vendors.

Participate in the tree-lighting ceremony when it gets dark, or enjoy viewing the light spectacle on a horse drawn carriage! End your evening with a free fireworks show sure to delight those of all ages.

Winter Lights Festival

One of the advantages of it getting dark so early these days is that there is more time for holiday decorations to truly shine! Experience one of the biggest and best displays of seasonal spirit at the Winter Lights Festival.

Going on its 23rd year, drive through the Seneca Creek State Park to see a dazzling display of decorations that spread for acres. Turn on some holiday tunes while you drive through to truly make it an unforgettable seasonal experience!
