Lights of Fircrest
December 1 - December 31
We’re excited to present the 2025 LIGHTS of Fircrest Touring Guide! We have 52 participants this year. They are sure to WOW and impress!
We’ve included everything you’ll need for our Festive Fircrest FUN event: address list, turn-by-turn guide, map and scavenger hunt! Just follow this link: https://form.jotform.com/…/2025-lights-of-fircrest-route
If the route seems a little round-about to you, please know that this is intentional. There are MANY beautiful displays around town that aren’t signed up. We want you to enjoy it all!
IF you feel so inclined, we encourage you walk a neighborhood at a time and enjoy the lights on foot. And there are many other fun displays to see that aren’t entered in the event.
All the beautiful displays you are about to enjoy are set in our neighborhoods. There are many walkers and bikers. Please drive cautiously and carefully as you view the displays through the neighborhoods. Please be mindful of the SPEED LIMIT. Thank you!
Now it’s time to bundle up, make a cup of cocoa AND ENJOY the displays!
AND…
