Even The Grinch Would Marvel At The Christmas Light Display At The La Salette shrine In New Hampshire
This time of year means great food, great friends and some serious cheer. And we love how many fun events are taking place all over the state. As you make your holiday list of must-dos you’re probably including a fair few Christmas light displays. They’re all lovely, full of magic and beauty. But this one is sure to make even the grumps among us smile.
For nearly 70 years, The La Salette Shrine in Enfield has been bringing holiday cheer to Upper Valley with a truly unique show of Christmas lights. This special event has been going on since the 1950s!
Taking over a 20-acre hillside area, the landscape comes alive each winter. And folks from near and far make this a cornerstone of their yearly celebration tradition.
The 68th Annual Festival of Lights begins on Sunday, November 30th at 4:15 p.m. You can learn more about the event here. After the opening weekend, the lights stay on every day through December 31st. The lights are lit from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and the cafeteria is open for snacks until 8:30 p.m.
