First City Of Lights
NOVEMBER 24, 2023 firstcityoflights.org
Kick off the holiday season with the 26th Annual Night We Light Parade and Celebration, where it is a tradition to light up the town with over half a million lights illuminated in Paul Bunyan Park, Downtown Bemidji, and Bemidji’s South Shore. Featured displays are Paul Bunyan’s Christmas Tree, Fountain of Hope, Nature Trail, and Salute to Heroes. Until mid February, enjoy the lights with a walk through Paul Bunyan Park, take a selfie next to the #Bemidji sign, and simply take in the sights of Paul and Babe in the breathtaking winter scenery.
