Audubon Lights Weekends
Live entertainment announced for March 21-April 5
JAMESTOWN – Not only does Audubon Lights 2025 have spectacular displays and laser light shows, it also features live entertainment each weekend, March 21st through April 5th.
When you walk the luminary-lit trail at Audubon Community Nature Center, you will marvel at the lights on the ponds and woods. The trail ends at the Nature Center with a warm fire, hot drinks, popcorn, and other food for sale. That’s where you will find the live entertainment that is different every weekend.
On Friday and Saturday, March 21-22, music is by Ayri Brady, and Luna Solaria offers fire, LED and black light dancing. Adam McKillip is the musician on March 28-29, and Bill Ward brings his guitar when Luna Solaria returns April 4-5. In the Nature Center building you can play in the indoor nature play area, visit the live animals, and shop in the Blue Heron Gift Shop.
You can purchase small LED lights at the entrance for additional fun, as well as glasses that refract the light to make the trail even more amazing. Bringing cash makes purchasing easier.
Audubon Lights happens rain or shine, so be sure to dress for the weather. Entertainment will move indoors if the weather is bad.
You may be glad you brought a flashlight for dark sections of the trail. Parking lots have lights, but an un-lit overflow parking lot is used on crowded nights.
Buy a Nature Center membership at Audubon Lights and you will receive a discount on your event tickets plus four free light gadgets for your family to enjoy. Hours March 21 and 22 are 8:00-10:00pm. With increasing daylight, March 28 and 29 hours are 8:15-10:00pm., and April 4 and 5 hours are 8:30-10:00pm.
