The Napa Lighted Art Festival is a celebration of creative arts, technology and lights, and supports innovative techniques using light and light technologies as a growing art medium. This walkable outdoor experience is free in Downtown Napa, featuring 15 lighted art installations for 5 weeks from January 17 - February 15, 2026. Projection artwork will be displayed on three iconic downtown buildings for the first 9 nights of the festival: January 17-25, 2026.

It's a free, walkable outdoor event that blends sculpture, projection art, interactive exhibits and even giant Roaming Gnomes (more about them later) and takes place Jan. 17-Feb. 15. It's the eighth time around for an event patterned after light festivals in Europe and elsewhere (see Fete des Lumieres in Lyon, France; Berlin Festival of Lights in Germany; and Vivid Sydney in Australia), and it draws both artists and spectators from around the globe.

The PGA Tour's annual stop in Napa rarely makes headlines. As the start of the PGA Tour fall season - a series of events that allows fringe players an opportunity to keep or regain their full Tour status - the Safeway Open turned Fortinet Open and now Procore Championship doesn't usually draw many of the game's biggest names. But this week, with the Ryder Cup just two weeks away, that's set to change.

The 45-year-old Napa man was charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon after allegedly trying to ram vehicles in a Tesla parking lot.
