This holiday season, the landscape of The Breakers will dazzle visitors like never before.
Sparkling Lights at The Breakers, which delighted thousands of visitors when it debuted, will be twice as large when it opens Saturday, November 19. The colorful spectacle and holiday music will be expanded to the southern portion of the historic Serpentine Path. Photo opportunities will abound, from the expanded, 50-foot-long Tunnel of Light to the Van”deer”bilt Selfie Station. The back terrace will be part of “Sparkling Lights” for the first time, with warming stations, adult beverages and s’mores kits available. In all, Sparkling Lights will cover more than half of the 13-acre property, with nearly 100,000 lights and plenty of surprises along the way. Sparkling Lights at The Breakers will be displayed Thursday through Sunday evenings, 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., from November 19 through January 1. Tickets are now on sale through NewportMansions.org.
