The Bull Run Festival of Lights is one of the biggest and brightest holiday light shows in Northern Virginia. It’s back for its 13th year at Bull Run Regional Park in Centreville, VA and I’m happy to share this event with you plus a fun giveaway! This year’s festival opened November 21st, 2012 and runs through January 6th, 2013. Bull Run Festival of Lights is located just off of I-66 in Centreville, on Rt. 29 (Lee Highway), just 3 miles from historic Manassas Battlefield Park.
The event sees more than 30,000 cars each season, and over 130,000 people, and if you’ve glimpsed it while driving on I-66, then you know it’s quite a spectacle.
You can also enjoy Santa’s Enchanted Lights, with over 40,000 animated lights set to music! This spectacle is located in the Holiday Village, open every night.
