September 24, 2013 According to their website Bentleyville is America's largest FREE walk through lighting display. How awesome that something SO cool is right here in the Northland. It all started with Nathan Bentley in 2001. The phenomenon has since moved to Bayfront Park and exists with the help of several community volunteers.
Last year the 56,000 light Christmas display which adorned Jan Stewart's Fountain Valley, California home went viral, with a YouTube video of the lights in action garnering close to 500,000 views.
November 17, 2012 The Christmas City Of The North Parade is done for another year, but downtown Duluth remains full of holiday cheer with the 7th annual storefront window display and lighting contest presented by the Greater Downtown Council.

Even if you didn't, that's no excuse to dig out those ripped boxes of tangled holiday lights, plug em' in to make sure they work and get to it!! It could win you a trophy or a prize!!! Enter yourself, or get your whole neighborhood involved, it's time to get into that holiday spirit.
