Second-annual Holiday Lights season is bigger, brighter for 2023

The Columbia Fireflies today announced the promotional schedule for the 2023 Fireflies Holiday Lights season, happening at Segra Park November 16-December 31 for the second year.

This year will mark the return of a few fan favorite theme nights, including Thirsty Thursday, where the drink specials are as easy as 1, 2, 3. Fans can enjoy $1 fountain sodas, $2 domestic draft beers an $3 craft draft beers and house cocktails (cocktails such as Grinch Punch are not included). We’ll also see the return of Winter Wag-Along Wednesdays where dogs are invited to enjoy the lights as well and Kids Eat Free Sundays, where kids 12 and under will receive a voucher for a hot dog and fountain soda upon entry to Segra Park.

This year, we’ll also host Tuesday Ugly Sweater Parties, where everyone who wears an ugly Christmas Sweater will receive a coupon for a free hot chocolate and Mason Mondays, where kids can hang out with their favorite Mascot, Mason the Firefly.

In addition to the various theme nights, the big man himself, Santa, will be at the ballpark each night through December 23 from 6:30-8:30 to take pictures and receive Christmas wishes. There will be a Lexington Medical Center Santa Letter Writing Station by the LexMed Be Well Picnic Pavilion, we’ll provide nightly crafts in our MUSC Health Conference Room and there’ll be scavenger hunt cards available at guest services for those who wish to accept the challenge to find hidden gems within the lights.

Finally, this year we will welcome Richardson Tree Farm from Jefferson, North Carolina, who will be supplying a Christmas Tree Farm for fans to purchase at the stadium and take home with them to kick-off the Christmas season.
