Let There Be Lights

'Tis the season for Tempe to doll itself up

By Julie Peterson

Published on November 22, 2007

If your inner Cindy Lou Who is craving an electric parade, Santa's arrival, fireworks, and a massive tree, then donate a can of food for parking and be in place for opening night of the annual APS Fantasy of Lights. The Mill Avenue District, a sparkly, sometimes-crazed wonderland from now through New Year's, gets extra-sparkly and family-cozy for this event, which also includes live Yule tuneage from the Caribbean Cruisers and a rare display of the LED public art on Metro's new Town Lake Bridge. (We'll be back Saturday, December 8, to play in some real, live snow and to watch the APS Fantasy of Lights Boat Parade on Town Lake.)
