DOWNTOWN GLENDALE LIGHTS UP WITH SPECTACULAR KICKOFF TO ITS HOLIDAY TRADITION NOVEMBER 23-24
    
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- What is synonymous with holiday fun on Thanksgiving weekend in the Valley of the Sun? Glendale Glitters! The stunning display of 1.5 million lights will illuminate sixteen blocks of Historic Downtown Glendale, making it the largest free holiday light display in Arizona, and it all kicks off Nov. 23-24 from 5-10 p.m. each evening.
Free admission and free shuttles makes Glendale Glitters one of the best-loved festivals for Arizona families year after year. In fact, the event was named azcentral.com’s  Critics’ Choice for the Best Kid Event in the state in 2012.   
Visitors of all ages will delight in holiday entertainment, delectable food, hand-crafted holiday gifts, a children’s winter wonderland and petting zoo, horse-drawn carriage rides, shopping and, of course, visits with Jolly Ol’ St. Nick. The always-entertaining stage show counts down to the lighting ceremony on Friday evening, Nov. 23 beginning at 5:30 p.m.
The holiday magic continues with more events in downtown Glendale, each Friday and Saturday through Dec. 15, from 6-10 p.m. each evening.
•    Nov. 30-Dec. 1: Glendale’s Spirit of Giving Weekend
•    Dec. 7-8: Glendale’s Winter Wonderland Weekend
•    Dec. 14-15: Glendale’s Jingle Bell Rockin’ Nights

The glittering magic of Glendale’s holiday display remains lit nightly through Jan. 12, from 5-10 p.m. each evening. Historic Downtown Glendale is located at 58th and Glendale avenues. For more information, call the Special Event Hotline at 623-930-2299, or visit www.glendaleaz.com/events.
