Downtown Richmond Tacky Lights Walk

​

Join Central Virginia Trailblazers for our annual "tacky lights" walk through downtown Richmond! Get in the holiday spirit with Central Virginia Trailblazers! For 8 years running, CVT has hosted a free "tacky lights" walking tour of downtown RVA, beginning and ending in Carytown.

​

Highlights of the tour include the Jefferson Hotel lobby, the James Center, the State Capital, and Monument Avenue. With a total distance of around 7 miles, it is a long walk...but it really is best way to see the decorations.

​

We will be walking at a leisurely pace, stopping at points of interest to allow time for photographs and restroom breaks. Note this is not a narrated tour or pub crawl.

Dress for the weather! Wear comfortable, broken-in walking shoes and bring a snack, water, and perhaps a hot beverage to stay warm. Flashlights are nice to have, but are not required, as there are street lights throughout the walk. Friendly, leashed dogs are welcome.

​

Saturday nights in Carytown can be busy, so PLEASE ALLOW EXTRA TIME FOR PARKING. On-street parking is available on and around Cary St. There is a parking deck behind the Byrd Theatre and a large surface lot west of Sheppard St. behind Plan 9. Observe posted signs.

​

Happy Holidays!
