Holiday events are starting to be announced more and more as we get closer to the holiday season. It's crazy that we're only a week away from November!

On Facebook, I keep getting suggestions for different holiday events going on in the area and across Minnesota. It's that time of year already, I guess.

GLOW Holiday Festival is Back in Minnesota

GLOW has announced its return to Minnesota this holiday season! If I'm remembering correctly, the first year they did GLOW here it was at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. But last year they moved it to CHS Field in St. Paul.

I went to GLOW with my husband and my family last year. Let me tell you, it really is very bright! There are so many lights, displays, and things to do. There's food to eat, drinks to try, an ice slide, a maze, a zipline, and it's all outside, so dress appropriately!

Where is GLOW in Minnesota for 2024?

For the 2024 season, GLOW has decided to stay at the home of the St. Paul Saints, CHS Field.

It will open for the season the week before Thanksgiving, on Thursday, November 21st. In a usual week, they'll be open Thursday through Sunday.
