Thanksgiving Night Lighting & Fireworks Display Scheduled for November 26
The annual Thanksgiving Night Lighting & Fireworks Display will take place on Thursday, Nov. 26, beginning at 7 p.m. in historic downtown Sedalia.
The event is hosted by Hotel Bothwell, an Ascend Collection hotel by Choice Hotels International, and the City of Sedalia.
The celebration begins with a countdown at 7 p.m., when Hotel Bothwell (103 E. 4th Street) and surrounding downtown buildings illuminate with Christmas lights.
A spectacular fireworks display, launched from the hotel's rooftop and synchronized to holiday music, will follow.
Several local shops and restaurants will offer extended hours for this special Thanksgiving night tradition. You can step inside Hotel Bothwell to experience the holiday magic, with 19 beautifully decorated Christmas trees and festive displays throughout the hotel. These stunning decorations create a charming backdrop for family gatherings, holiday photos, and special memories.
All ornaments and holiday décor are also available for purchase, allowing guests to bring a little of Hotel Bothwell's holiday charm home with them.
Hotel Bothwell gave a special thank you to the City of Sedalia for its generous co-sponsorship of this event and continued commitment to making this holiday tradition possible.
“We are especially grateful to the Sedalia Police Department, Sedalia Fire Department, and Sedalia Public Works for their assistance with event preparation, coordination, and ensuring a safe and successful celebration. We would also like to extend our appreciation to Mayor Traves Williams and Sedalia Main Streets for their continued support,” said Erica Eisenmenger Owner, Hotel Bothwell Furnell Investments, Inc.
Eisenmenger also gave a shout out to Precision Fireworks and Conrad Audio.
