Every year from November until just after New Year’s Day, you can experience the Bull Run Festival of Lights, 2.5 miles illuminated by holiday light displays.
The park is located at 7700 Bull Run Dr. in Centreville.
Drive the festival route from the comfort of your car. This year, don't miss the carnival at the end of your drive for holiday shopping, a petting zoo and more festive fun!
Want to avoid the crowds? Visit Monday-Thursday. The busiest times are Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, as well as the week before and after the Christmas holiday.
