Get ready for some serious holiday vibes – Winterlights in the Berkshires is back, and it's not just any show, it's the holiday magic we all need! Picture this: November 29th rolls around, and suddenly, Naumkeag in Stockbridge transforms into this glow-up wonderland. It's like stepping into a holiday movie, complete with twinkling lights, festive tunes, and treats that scream, "ts the season!"
Now, the cool thing about Winterlights is that it's not just happening at Naumkeag; it's also lighting up Stevens-Coolidge House and Gardens in North Andover and the Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate in Canton. But, let's be real, the star of the show is Naumkeag. It's the OG of holiday enchantment, and the folks behind it even snagged a top 10 spot in USA TODAY's 10Best Readers' Choice Awards for holiday light displays in 2020!

They're throwing the sparkle from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. every Wednesday through Sunday. And, because we know you're all about the deets, The Trustees have been busy adding new stuff to Winterlights every year. Think hundreds of thousands of energy-efficient LED lights scattered across the properties, turning them into a real-life fairy tale.
