Portland lights up for festival

The Portland Winter Light Festival is an annual cultural event, hosted primarily in downtown Portland. It’s been ongoing since 2016 and features numerous light shows – illuminated light displays, of varying materials and concepts – created by various local artists. The majority of displays are centered around Pioneer Courthouse Square, the World Trade Center building, and along the downtown westside. However, others may be enjoyed in several other locations scattered across the city. This year the Light Festival runs from Friday, Feb. 3, through Saturday, Feb. 11, though the anchor sites will only be active on Feb. 3-4 and Feb. 10-11, from 6 to 10 p.m.
