Are you ready to party?
It is a great escape and wonderful stress release.
There are many options and this winter, perhaps the best option.
Private parties are cozy. Office parties straddle the line between fun, forced smiles and pleasing the boss. Club parties have their place for dancing, drinking and making a date.
But a block party with an incredible light show? That sounds like incredible fun. Bring your camera. Make your memories.
Are you planning on visiting San Francisco soon? This would be a great time to do so.
Check this out.

Mayor Breed Announces Return of Let's Glow SF Holiday Light Show, Featuring New Block Party
The country’s largest holiday animated projection mapping show returns to Downtown San Francisco with an expanded footprint and block party on Front Street, the State’s first entertainment zone The Let’s Glow SF 2024 kickoff event will return this year in front of the Ferry Building on December 6 at 5 p.m.
October 25, 2024
San Francisco, CA – Mayor London N. Breed today joined the Office of Economic Workforce & Development (OEWD) and the Downtown SF Partnership to announce the City’s fourth annual Let’s Glow SF, the largest holiday projection mapping show in the country that last year alone drew 67,000 viewers to Downtown to enjoy the show. The free outdoor event has expanded this year to include seven iconic Downtown buildings featuring large-scale animated light installations by 13 artists from around the world and award-winning design studios, and an art installation at the East Cut Crossing.
The program will run from December 6 to 15, 2024 with nightly shows from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., and will feature an all-ages block party on Front Street, the State’s first entertainment zone, on December 13, 2024.
Mayor Breed’s budget includes additional grant funding support to expand Let’s Glow SF’s footprint to bring the animated holiday projections to buildings in Yerba Buena and the East Cut neighborhoods—including Annie Alley and the PG&E Substation, located at 425 Folsom Street. Other locations include the Ferry Building and the top of Salesforce Tower, which will showcase Let’s Glow SF artwork on its LED panel, visible throughout the Bay Area.
“Let’s Glow SF is truly becoming a San Francisco holiday tradition. When we kicked this off in 2021, our City was still in the midst of a pandemic and Downtown looked so different, we were so committed to finding ways to bring back the joy to our Downtown, and just when we needed it most, the Downtown SF Partnership stepped up to help,” said Mayor London Breed. “This event is loved by so many, and last year brought over 67,000 visitors back into our Downtown to take in the glow, and we expect even more this year. San Francisco has a story to tell, and Let’s Glow SF helps share our story by highlighting the beauty and creativity that makes San Francisco so special.”
The signature event is part of the Mayor’s Roadmap to San Francisco’s Future and is the latest in a series of the Downtown SF Partnership’s entertainment initiatives aimed at transforming Downtown into a leading 24/7 arts, culture, and nightlife destination. Last year, Let’s Glow SF generated $8 million in economic impact for Downtown and drew more than 67,000 people over ten nights.
On December 6, a ‘Countdown to Glow’ public kickoff will take place at the foot of Market Street facing the Ferry Building with entertainment beginning at 5 p.m. Opening remarks will begin at 6:30 p.m. and the light shows will officially turn on at 7 p.m. Attendees will be able to experience the wonder of the season with exciting performances from Catalyst Arts and Circosphere, a DJ, complimentary hot chocolate from Sunset Roasters and Marley’s Treats, and scrumptious pizza available for purchase from Mozzeria. Free Let's Glow SF swag will be available while supplies last.
Throughout the 10-night event, attendees can tour 16 Downtown bars and restaurants as part of their Let’s Glow SF crawl adventure and take advantage of food and drink specials including prix fixe menus, holiday-themed cocktails, and other discounts.
Let’s Glow SF 2024 show locations include: the Ferry Building at 1 Ferry Building; 101 California Street; Pacific Coast Stock Exchange at 301 Pine Street; One Bush Plaza at 1 Bush Street; PG&E Substation at 425 Folsom Street; Salesforce Tower at 415 Mission Street; and Annie Alley, between the storied Dawn Club and Palace Hotel off Market Street, which will include outdoor drink and food offerings for all ages. Each building’s video projection, using techniques with light, colors and music, will tell an enchanting story that celebrates the holiday season. New this year, the East Cut Crossing at 250 Main Street will host Nexus Dream, an abstract, illuminated inflatable sculpture by artists Anne-Sophie Acomat and Jérémie Bellot.
Let’s Glow SF is hosted by the Downtown SF Partnership (DSFP), the community benefit district that oversees 43 blocks across San Francisco’s Financial District and Jackson Square Historic District, and is organized and produced in collaboration with A3 Visual. Other partners include Amazon, Yerba Buena Partnership, and The East Cut Community Benefit District.
Let’s Glow SF will celebrate the close of the festival on December 13, from 5-10 p.m. with a block party for all ages on Front Street, the first designated entertainment zone in California. During the event, Front Street will be closed to vehicles and will feature public music, illuminated performers, and holiday fun for all ages. People 21+ will be able to enjoy alcoholic beverages to-go from Schroeder’s, Harrington’s Bar & Grill, and Royal Exchange within the designated area while taking in the seasonal illuminations Downtown.
Let’s Glow SF 2024 is presented by Amazon, an investor committed to making a significant contribution in the economic recovery of Downtown San Francisco. Additional sponsors include JPMorgan Chase and Zoox.
"As a company deeply invested in the community, we are proud to support Let’s Glow SF as it continues to grow and highlight the creativity and innovation that makes San Francisco special,” said Stephanie Gaywood, Head of Community Engagement, Amazon in Northern California. “Events like this bring people together and shine a light on the resilience of downtown, creating lasting memories and boosting the local economy. We are excited to be part of this celebration and look forward to seeing the city illuminated with inspiring art." ###
