Summer heat is upon us and we're about to see our first official 100-degree this week. That aside, it might also be time for North Texans to get into the holiday spirit.
A holiday light display shown in cities around the world is heading to Fort Worth for the first time, organizers announced Wednesday.
Running Nov. 18 through Jan. 8, Lightscape will bring more than one million lights to a one-mile walking trail at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden.
"Lightscape ticketholders will walk a one-mile-long path with suspended strands and tunnels of light, a fire garden, undulating wave of bluebonnets, singing trees, treetop sculptures, and artistic installations, while toasting marshmallows over a fire and drinking hot chocolate and other seasonal drinks at stations along the trail," a news release said.
