Bluffton is on the Ohio holiday lights map
New this year, Bluffton’s Blaze of Lights is featured on the Holiday Lights Trail at Ohio.org/Holidays.
“The map will lead travelers to Bluffton’s Blaze of Lights, which includes the Ream folk art display, downtown holiday lights, and residential lights,” says Paula Scott, CEO of the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce.
“We are thrilled that Bluffton’s cherished traditions are now part of the Holidays In Ohio campaign.
“The 32nd annual Blaze of Lights festival is an event on Saturday, Nov. 24, that starts with the 5 p.m. parade followed by live entertainment and a lighting ceremony,” said Scott.
“And our holiday decorations continue to bring visitors to the village through the first of the new year. We award cash prizes in a residential decorating contest and provide our own Bluffton driving map.”
Bluffton’s Blaze of Lights is one of 30 distinctive displays across the state where visitors can enjoy millions of holiday lights. Travelers can browse the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail online or download a printable map to share or take along in the car. Even more seasonal opportunities are provided on Ohio.org/Holidays.

The Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce has some 200 members from all segments of the community and organizes events and programs including the Bluffton Farmers Market, Arts & Crafts Festival, Business Showcase at Bluffton University, and Blaze of Lights.
