Sedona's Red Rock Fantasy holiday light display kicks off this month with nearly a million lights twinkling with the area's famous Red Rocks as a backdrop. Now in its nineteenth year the festival boasts nearly two-dozen displays created by families from the Southwest.

It takes place at Los Abrigados Resort & Spa with Lights On at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 19, 2009. The event will last through the New Year, ending with “Lights Out” on Saturday, January 2, 2010.

The festival is open each evening (weather permitting) from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. Admission is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors, $2 for children aged 5-12 and children 4 and under are free.

All those touring the lights will be given a ballot containing a route map, which will allow them to choose five favorite displays. The winning display will be awarded a lifetime vacation ownership. Some of the proceeds from the event are donated to local schools, charities and nonprofits.

For more information, call 928-282-1777 or toll free 800-521-3131 or go to www.redrockfantasy.com.
