A College of Charleston holiday tradition returns to the Cistern Yard this month. Cougar Night Lights captures the magic of the holiday season with dazzling light displays set to classic holiday tunes as well as popular contemporary songs chosen by students.
Cougar Night Lights will open to the public on Dec. 5, 2023, and run nightly through Jan. 1, 2024. The musical light show will run every half hour 5:30 and 9 p.m. Cougar Night Lights is a free event.
The show is produced and designed by CofC alumnus John Reynolds ’97, an Emmy Award–winning lighting designer who has done work for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Super Bowl.
The Cistern Yard is located at the corner of George and St. Philip streets. Public parking garages are available at two locations, including the George Street Garage and St. Philip Street Garage.
