Twinkly Lights in Duluth

Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas! Ours was nice and quiet this year. I wanted to share some more Christmas magic with you today.  Last weekend we were able to visit Duluth and check out their amazing Christmas Holiday light display.  Even though I've lived in Minnesota for over 15 years, I'm still learning about this beautiful state and was thrilled to find out about this wonderful Christmas display.  This is a must see!



Bentleyville "Tour of Lights" is America's largest free walk through lighting display, located in Duluth, Minnesota, that runs from November 21 to December 27. Bentleyville is set up in Bayfront Festival Park. Bentleyville has volunteers work year round to set up this beautiful attraction.


Here are a few of the photos I'd like to share.
































The dogs were one of my favorites, the lights flash and it appears their legs are moving... check out the video below and you'll see them!


 



 

The lights reflecting off the snow made this picture turn out so pretty!


 



 




 


 




 



 





 



I even found a great video with narration of how the light display all started.  It's a great video,  ( I'm not related or in any way associated with the guy making the video, just thought it was good).








Hope you enjoyed this little walk through the festive lights!
There was just enough snow on the ground to really bring out that Christmas feel that we are so accustomed to here in the north-land!

See you in the New Year!

  3. Wow, this light show is amazing, Diane. So beautiful. It really does look like the dogs are running with the twinkling lights. I loved the penguin dancing and Rudolph in the video.

    So glad you had a nice Christmas. May the new year bring you much peace and joy.
