The official kickoff to the holiday season in Pittsburgh is back on a new day! Light Up Night is returning in 2021, moving from the Friday before Thanksgiving to Saturday, November 20 as a part of a larger 60th Anniversary refresh for the beloved celebration.

The refresh includes a release of the new Light Up Night logo, featuring Highmark, the new presenting sponsor for the annual celebration.
