Hundreds Drawn To Popular Annual Event In Great Falls
Hopefully, you had a chance to make it out to the 2024 Luminaria Walk here in Great Falls along the River Edge Trail.
The luminary walk is one of my favorite events in the Electric City.
The walk features 1,500 luminaria lanterns over multiple miles of the trail.
It's always cool to see how many folks attend the event.
We didn't walk nearly as far as last year, but the attendance seemed good along the trail.
This year, numerous musicians, vendors, and food trucks were scattered along the trail.
