About Napa Lighted Art Festival
Five weeks of free glowing art installations lighting up downtown Napa on winter nights, in the middle of wine country.
Each winter, downtown Napa turns into an open-air gallery of lighted art by regional and international artists. The route is free and walkable, and projection art covers three downtown buildings for the first nine nights. Plan an evening visit, since everything is lit after dark and the hours end at 9 or 10 pm.

- Projection artwork is shown only on the first nine nights.
