Holiday Lighting in Kent, WA

Kent homes and businesses get holiday lights from our Redmond crews. The lights are LEDs of professional grade, available in white or multicolor, cut to follow the rooflines. They are held by clips alone, with weather-rated connections. We lease them, which keeps them ours, and customers pay per season.

Winterfest at Town Square Plaza

The City of Kent’s Winterfest page lists a Tree Lighting Festival and Parade at Town Square Plaza, at 2nd Ave and Smith St, on Saturday, December 5, with the event running from 2 pm to 7 pm, the parade at 5 pm and the tree lighting at 6 pm. The page says Winterfest is presented by Kent Parks, the Kent Lions Club and Kent Downtown Partnership. The Kent Reporter reported that Winterfest was held on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at Town Square Plaza and Kent Station.

Other holiday dates on the City’s page

The same page lists a Santa House at Kent Station from November 28 to December 23, the Magical Strings Celtic Yuletide Concert on December 6 at the Kent-Meridian Performing Arts Center, and the Christmas Rush 5k/10k on December 12 at Hogan Park. These are the City’s listings, and they are not our work.

The Lions and Winterfest

The Kent Reporter wrote in November 2020 that “Winterfest is a gift from the Kent Lions to the community of Kent.” In December 2025 the paper described a parade through the shopping center, with the tree lighting at Town Square Plaza.

What the Kent Reporter has recorded

In 2022 the paper wrote that “Town Square Plaza in Kent is lit up for the holidays,” after a Winterfest on Saturday, December 3 with a tree lighting, parade and Santa’s arrival. A November 2020 article said the plaza’s tree held 54 strands with over 10,000 lights, and that the displays in the park added up to over 100,000 lights. In 2018 the paper reported that the City and Kent Downtown Partnership had unveiled programmable colored LED lighting under the Highway 167 overpass on West Meeker Street. In 2017 the paper wrote that Kent Downtown Partnership volunteers were wrapping garland around light poles in downtown Kent. These are public displays and are not our work.
