Downtown Frankfort kicks off the holiday season with the Candlelight Holiday Weekend, running Thursday, Nov 12 through Saturday, Nov 14, 2026.

Hosted by Downtown Frankfort, Inc., it is a cozy, walkable way to start the season among the brick storefronts, boutiques, and bakeries of Frankfort's downtown.
