Bedford Co. prepares for return of annual holiday lights display

Bedford County, PA (WJAC) — Bedford County is getting ready to welcome back visitors for the 5th annual Holiday Nights of Lights display at the Bedford Fairgrounds.

It’s a drive-thru Christmas light display featuring hundreds of thousands of lights in more than 180 displays, including 34 new displays this year.

Churches, Bedford High School's Interact Club, businesses and local organizations have all pitched in to build and decorate the displays and Santa’s workshop which will be in the famous Coffee Pot landmark.

“When you give our business community and residents the chance to come together, to work together, for something bigger than themselves; to create something special for our local families, for our communities, they show up - and they show up big time. You can see just hundreds of thousands of lights. I never stop being inspired by the way our business community comes together to do special things.”

The event opens on Black Friday and runs every weekend until Christmas, as well as select weekdays the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s.

Admission is a $10 donation and is at the pit entrance not the main entrance near the Coffee Pot.
