Lost Pines Christmas Events 2022

The Christmas season in Bastrop officially kicks off in late November! Whether you’re into holiday shopping, looking at Christmas lights, or catching a holiday show, there’s a lot going on this season. Here are a few fun upcoming events to mark on your holiday calendar.

Bastrop River of Lights

Impressive Christmas light displays will line June Hill Pape River Walk from November 25th – January 2nd, 2023. Grab some hot cocoa to-go and bring the whole family to take in the lighted displays in a variety of seasonal themes. The River of Lights display will be every night from dusk until 10 pm.

To access the half-mile riverside promenade of lights, come down the stairs west of the intersection of Main and Pine Streets. There is also a fully accessible entrance at Fisherman’s Park on Farm Street. There’s no better way to get in the holiday spirit.

Theater: Christmas Chaos

How about a Christmas show to up the spirits even more? Michael Wehrli’s “Christmas Chaos” will play at The Bastrop Opera House on December 2, 3, 9, 16, 17 at 7:30 pm, and December 10, 11 at 2:30 pm.

What’s the play about?

A professional theater company gets stranded on their way to a show, so a rag-tag group of local actors and theater people throw together their own version of Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” to keep the spirit alive. Get your tickets on the Bastrop Opera House website.

The weather is great, the people of Bastrop are friendly, and there are opportunities around every corner for great food, retail, entertainment, and employment.
