The *Downtown Dazzle* is back and ready to light up the heart of Cincinnati with festive magic! ✨🎄 Get ready for one of the holiday season’s most anticipated events as Santa makes a grand entrance, rappelling down a Cincinnati skyrise, followed by a breathtaking fireworks display lighting up the night sky. It’s the perfect way to kick off the season and create unforgettable memories!

Join in on the holiday fun every Saturday at Fountain Square with plenty to enjoy—whether it’s sipping a festive drink or cozying up with hot cocoa at the bar, or gliding across the ice at the UC Health Ice Rink, presented by Fifth Third Bank. Ice skating is walk-up only, no reservations needed, so grab your skates and join the fun!

*Special announcement:* On *November 30th*, Downtown Dazzle will be filled with the iconic sounds of the *Trans-Siberian Orchestra*, bringing their multi-platinum hits to the soundtrack of the night.

Huge thanks to the incredible sponsors who make this event possible: *The YMCA of Greater Cincinnati, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, United Dairy Farmers, Stigler Supply, Taft Law, Decal Impressions, and Thomas & Galbraith Heating, Cooling & Plumbing*.
