Light Up Night’s right around the corner, ushering in the official start of the holiday season in Pittsburgh. The evening, of course, promises plenty of fun and family-friendly activities – from horse-drawn carriage rides to visits with Santa. Light Up Night’s masterpiece, however, is the lighting of the city Christmas trees and two epic fireworks shows. If you prefer to stay indoors but don’t want to miss the evening’s fun, grab your sleeping bag for an overnight at the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh.
Catch some of the early activities during Light Up Night in Downtown Pittsburgh, or just check in for your Light Up Night Sleepover at the Carnegie Science Center, beginning at 6 p.m. on November 22, 2019.
