Hi friends, welcome back! One of my favorite holiday decorations in the city is the Shine Bright at Hudson Yards display presented by Wells Fargo. The mall officially opened in 2019, but 2020 was the first year with these extravagant decorations. I first saw this display in 2021 and I couldn't believe how any lights there were! They seem to keep it the same every year, but I can appreciate that. The decorations are on display from now until January 7, 2024.
In total, there are over two million string lights spanning 115 miles. They must have a hefty electric bill!
725 evergreens are dispersed throughout the exterior and interior space.
I love this giant hot air balloon. I don't really associate hot air balloons with Christmas, but it's so pretty when the lights change colors.
I'd love to see Santa's elves busy working on this display, it must take a lot of hands and hours!
This year they had a few photo props to take pictures with.
While at the mall you can complete you holiday shopping, dine at the many restaurants, take pictures with Santa, skate at New York's tallest skating rink at the Edge, or grab a drink at Santa's Secret speakeasy. Shine Bright by Hudson Yards is always a beautiful sight to see and I usually visit during the week to avoid the crowds. You can go inside when the mall is open Monday-Saturday 10am -8pm, Sunday 11am -7pm. After visiting Hudson Yards, I'd recommend walking a few avenues over to Macy's on 34th Street which is coming up next 🙂 Stay tuned for more holiday cheer!
