Hudson Valley Hospice Foundation invites the community to join us for Lights Across the Hudson, a luminary event celebrating those we have lost.
Join us for this spectacular tribute on Friday, August 8, 2025 from 7-9:30PM at The Walkway Over the Hudson, which will shine brightly as thousands of glowing luminaries light the way in memory of loved ones. This event will feature:
Luminaries – Each luminary will represent a life remembered. You can dedicate a luminary to honor your loved ones and contribute to this stunning visual tribute.
Inspirational Readings – Hear beautiful tributes and readings that celebrate life and healing from a number of local spiritual leaders from various faiths.
Special Moments – Reflect, connect and share memories with others in a serene, supportive environment.
Music – iHeart Media of the Hudson Valley will be on site to provide the soundtrack for the evening's event.
Food Trucks – Savor delicious offerings from local food trucks, like Lemon Love, Mercurial Coffee Co., From the Ground Up, Moose Scoops, and Loaded Kitchen.
This event is FREE and open to all who wish to join us! Whether you’re honoring a loved one or simply looking to be a part of this community remembrance, everyone is welcome to attend and share in the spirit of togetherness.
Luminary bags are available for advance purchase online, and will also be available the night of the event for an additional fee. Community Partner sponsorships are still available as well. For more information, visit hvhospice.org/lights.
