The 21st Annual Festival of Lights will begin with festive activities at noon and the flip of a switch on Friday, November 29th, 2013 at 4:30 p.m. during the “Switch-On Ceremony” presented by Duane and Kelly Roberts, owners of The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa. In one swift move Riverside’s downtown is instantly illuminated with more than three and a half million twinkling lights and spectacular fireworks! The Greater Riverside Chambers of Commerce and the Festival of Lights Committee, consisting of community volunteers and local businesses, put in many long hours to coordinate the Ceremony.

Festival of Trees

The Festival of Trees in downtown Riverside will once again extend its annual invitation to indulge in the holiday cheer.  Riverside County Regional Medical Center hosts the four-day festival as a free event for the public. The festival will take place through Sunday, Nov. 25, at the Riverside Auditorium and Events Center, it’s home while the Riverside Convention Center undergoes renovations.

A spectacle for the entire family, the celebration will display more than 50 lavishly and uniquely decorated holiday trees.

Music and Lyrics by Andrew Lippa

Based on the poem by Joseph Moncure March

 

Wild Party tells the story of one wild evening in a Manhattan apartment shared by Queenie and Burrs, a vaudeville dancer and vaudeville clown. In a relationship marked by vicious behavior and recklessness (mirroring the time in which they live), they decide to throw a party to end all parties. As the guests arrive, we meet an assortment of people living on the edge. Queenie and Burrs set out to make each other jealous, but Queenie begins to fall in love with her conquest named Black.

 

For mature audiences.
