In 1947, a tradition began at Seven Falls to promote the canyon at night when alternating colored and white lights illuminated the waters, much to the delight of locals and visitors worldwide.

More than 100,000 individual lights will line the path leading to the Falls, and colored lights will also adorn the cliff faces of the Pillars of Hercules, making for not only a festive atmosphere but also a photographer’s dream locale for holiday family photos.
