Charlotte, NC – The Light the Knights Festival is set to return to Truist Field, located at 324 S Mint Street in Charlotte, NC, for the 2023 Christmas season. This year’s event will once again feature a regulation-size ice rink on the field and an expanded 10-lane snow tubing slope in the outfield, up from six lanes last year, promising shorter wait times for tubing enthusiasts.
The event is scheduled to run from Wednesday, November 22, 2023, through Monday, January 1, 2024, with Santa present every day until after Christmas. Tickets are available here.
Participants looking to tube or skate will be required to sign a waiver. The festival boasts a 150-foot tubing hill situated in the right field, offering a thrilling experience for visitors.
Additionally, the ice skating rink will host a variety of activities including tournaments, figure skating displays, and opportunities to learn hockey.
As in past years, the festival will be illuminated by Christmas lights and include live entertainment, on-field concessions, a range of gift vendors, and visits from Santa Claus himself.

- Thursday, November 23 (Thanksgiving)
- November 27 to 29
- December 4 to 6
- December 11 to 13
