Downtown Brooklyn Partnership unveils dynamic new holiday lights to brighten the neighborhood this holiday season
Downtown Brooklyn Partnership (DBP) has unveiled new and expanded designs for its district holiday lights, featuring a dynamic light network along Fulton Mall, Abolitionist Place, and Court Street. The new lights made their big debut on Tuesday, November 25, at DBP’s annual DTBK Gets Lit! celebration.
For Winter 2025, the neighborhood will shine with a new generation of holiday lighting – an adaptive, programmable network that transforms streets into living lightscapes. Each installation is distinct and will be programmed to shift hues, pulse in rhythm, or cascade dynamically, offering ever-changing combinations of color and motion.
To give the DTBK holiday lights a stunning new look, DBP issued an RFP for fabrication and installation, and following a competitive selection process, awarded the contract to a team comprised of Limbic Media and City1. Limbic Media is a pioneering creative studio based in Victoria, Canada, that specializes in immersive light and visual environments. City1 Maintenance is a Brooklyn-based streetscape maintenance company that has partnered with both Limbic Media and DBP to support lighting installations.
“This innovative lighting display will bring a new glow to Downtown Brooklyn’s key thoroughfares, inviting people to enjoy the festive spirit as they make their way through the neighborhood for holiday shopping,” said Regina Myer, President of Downtown Brooklyn Partnership. “We look forward to unveiling the exciting designs with the community at DTBK Gets Lit! this November.”
“Thank you to the Downtown Brooklyn community for the chance to help illuminate your neighborhood. Bringing dynamic, interactive lighting to these streets has been a joy for our team, and we are thrilled to help create new moments of wonder here in iconic Brooklyn,” said Marc Andrews, Director of Operations at Limbic Media.
