Wander Nights at Wanderlights

Wander Nights are back, making Downtown extra festive for the first three weekends in December. Enjoy a holly jolly atmosphere with free carousel rides, free hot chocolate, photos with Santa, fire pits, an indoor holiday market, and so much more! PLUS, hop on and off the free trolley and explore the fun around Downtown! This year the stops include Columbus Commons, Bicentennial Park, Lazarus Galleria, and the Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s butterfly light show. Wander Nights takes place on December 4, 5, 11, 12, 18, & 19 at the Wanderlights stops below: Columbus Commons: The Wanderlights path starts with the colorful, playful installations at the park, including a 40-foot lit tree, a tunnel of glowing archways, and new illuminations on the stage and Main Garage. Find the Nationwide Children’s Hospital butterfly charitable light display near the carousel. Lazarus Building Galleria: West Town Street will be twinkling with lights and decorations. Follow the illuminated penguins and lights down the Wanderlights path from Columbus Commons to the Scioto Mile Fountain. Bicentennial Park: The Downtown riverfront will be decked out in an elevated glow, centered around the Scioto Mile Fountain, which will be illuminated by sculptural lights.
