The Portland Winter Light Festival Will Go On In 2021—With Pandemic-Related Changes
Most organizers have pulled the plug on large-scale celebrations for the first quarter of 2021, but the Portland Winter Light Festival will go on—things are just going to look a little different. The sixth annual event is now scheduled to take place over two weekends, Feb. 5-6 and Feb. 12-13, in order to prevent crowds from mobbing the illuminated installations all at the same time. In another first, neither the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry nor the Eastbank Esplanade serve as hosts to any of the activities.
