German Village comes alive with
holiday magic during Village Lights!

Stroll through the neighborhood on
Sunday, December 6, from 4–8 pm, and enjoy an evening filled with music, shopping, festive treats, and plenty of holiday cheer.

The GVS Meeting Haus will be transformed into a magical holiday scene, complete with local vendors, food trucks, and special performances by Opera Columbus. Enjoy wine and beer, warm up with a cup of traditional German Glühwein, or treat yourself to a hot chocolate with a special kick!
Throughout the neighborhood, German Village’s signature charm is on full display, with beautifully decorated homes, businesses, and streets. GVBC member businesses will keep their doors open late, offering the perfect opportunity to find unique holiday gifts and support local shops.
(Directory and Map coming soon!) 
There’s music around every corner! Stop by Frank Fetch Park to enjoy performances by local choirs, then make your way to Schiller Park, where thousands of glowing luminarias create a truly magical holiday setting.
Bring your family and friends, bundle up, and make an evening of it. There’s a little holiday magic waiting around every corner!
