Desert Nights Downtown Lights Desert Nights Downtown Lights (DNDL), powered by Pima County, sets the holidays aglow with the building illumination program consisting of 60 illuminated buildings and over 150 street trees tightly wrapped with lights. The building illumination program began in 2017 as a unified effort to illuminate Downtown Tucson's unique skyline for the holidays. Downtown's skyline will be visible from Interstate 10, the Catalina Foothills and beyond. The illumination program attracts visitors from all over the region to stroll under the romantic lighting while they shop and dine downtown. DNDL, powered by Pima County begins on November 27 and runs through January 2. Please wear a mask and social distance. Desert Nights Downtown Lights Downtown Grants Making An Impact In an effort to help businesses overcome the financial and operational challenges resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Downtown Tucson Partnership teamed up with Pima County to provide the Downtown Outdoor Café Grant and Downtown Rebound Grant programs.
