Light Up Lauderdale is a ten week celebration of glittering holiday lights and holiday garland presented by Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale and the City of Fort Lauderdale. The kick off to the season took place with Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale Get Lit, which officially light up all of the lights along the Riverwalk and for the first time this year the Holiday Tree and Menorah in Huizenga Plaza.

To purchase a holiday greeting card or to sponsor a grove of trees contact the Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale office by e-mailing info@goriverwalk.com or by calling (954) 468-1541.
