Festive photos: Downtown Cleveland’s holiday lights and decorations


Today is the fourth day of Hanukkah, Christmas Eve is one week away, and Kwanzaa begins next Friday, Dec. 26. Festive lights and decorations can be found all over Northeast Ohio.

The lights are especially prominent around downtown, with activities like Bruce the Spruce’s Forest in Tower City for the Holidays, Great Lakes Theater’s annual performance of “A Christmas Carol” at the Mimi Ohio Theatre, or ice skating in Public Square as part of Winterland.

During a recent trip downtown, FreshWater’s Angelina Bair captured the beauty, festivities, and holiday lights throughout the city center. Happy Holidays!
