Baltimore lights up with Light City

Premiering in 2016, Light City Baltimore is the first large-scale, international light festival in the United States, homegrown right here in Baltimore. Light City will provide a backdrop for the celebration of ideas, ingenuity and creativity through art, music and innovation.

Light City will shine a light on Baltimore’s abundance of creative, cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary talent, and we welcome participants from across the globe to join us.   Light City’s innovation programming will generate an ecosystem of ideas and learning during the day – while lights, performances and live music reimagine the Inner Harbor at night.  Festival is open from 7:00 p.m.-11:00 p.m. Monday, March 28- Thursday, March 31; 7:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m. Friday, April 1-Saturday, April 2, and 7:00 p.m.-11:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 3.

The inaugural Light City Baltimore transforms the city into a beautiful, glowing beacon. The 1.5 mile BGE Light Art Walk features 50 attractions including illuminated visual artworks, street theater, musical performances and concerts. All will be free and accessible to everyone.
