It’s Time to “Lite Up” Your Night With Holiday Cheer

Every year, the Village of Lake George is lit by over 5,000 lights to kick off the holiday season!

Highlights include:

  • Live Music From the Lake George Community Band
  • Santa & Mrs. Claus
  • Hot Chocolate
  • Crazy & Ugly Sweater Contest 
  • 6pm: Countdown to Lite Up the Village, followed by fireworks
  • 6:30pm: Parade of Lights follows the fireworks

Local fire departments compete for cash prizes to be awarded at the Lake George American Legion along with refreshments.

The Parade of Lights escorts Santa and Mrs. Claus to the Lake George Volunteer Fire Department, where families are invited to enjoy music from the Lake George Community Band, and to meet with Santa and his wife.
