The event encompasses 25 immersive holiday experiences, with installations including a winter castle standing 36 feet high, a giant candy tree and candy garden reminiscent of Candy Land, and a glowing bamboo forest filled with friendly animals.
“We are so incredibly excited to launch our 2023 Holiday Lights Festival in Maryland for the first time ever,” said Xiaoyi Chen, founder, LuminoCity. “When we started the festival in New York five years ago, we were able to grow into multiple new markets around the Northeast. We are thrilled to be a memorable part of the festive season for locals and visitors alike.”
