Kicking off this Tuesday is a tradition Austinites always “light up” for. See dazzling electric light displays alongside loved ones – or maybe a person you’re trying to buddy up to so you can betray them later? Your choice, TBH. In addition to their illuminated offerings, the Trail of Lights Foundation and sponsor H-E-B also spotlight local musicians with a lineup including Tone Royal, Chief Cleopatra, Como Los Movies, and more. Attend on the free weekdays (Dec. 10-13, 16-18) or pay the weekend price ($8 for general admission, $25+ for the “platnium” tickies). Bonus: That blessed little train the Zilker Eagle will be running during special holiday hours. Toot-toot! – James Scott
Through Dec. 23
