2024 Christmas at the Fort: Nov.29- Dec. 29

Our annual celebration of the holidays with Lights, Music, Holiday Market, Open Doors in the Fort and Lots of JOY.

Take a ride to Historic Fort Steuben and Fort Steuben Park to experience a family-friendly, memory-making, selfie-shooting weekend. Situated in downtown Steubenville, Fort Steuben Park is transformed into a holiday destination dominated by the 32' Christmas tree and a canopy of colored lights and music where artisans are selling their wares and visitors can indulge in sweet treats.

The event begins with Steubenville Lights Up the Night, on November 29 when the Holiday Market opens, musical and dance performances are presented, and the sky is lit with spectacular fireworks.
