The 2017 Carol of Lights at Texas Tech

This year marks the  59th anniversary of the Texas Tech tradition that lights up campus with over 25,000 lights.

The Carol of Lights will be held this Friday at 6:30 on Tech's campus in the Memorial Circle, the Engineering Key, the Science Quad and the Broadway Entrance to Texas Tech. Also on display for this holiday tradition will be the 8-foot-tall Christmas tree standing proudly behind the Texas Tech Seal.

At 7 p.m. the Masked Rider, Raider Red, Saddle Tramps and High Riders will lead the Torch Light processional. The processional will follow the luminaria-guided route from the Broadway Entrance, around Memorial Circle and to the Engineering Key. The Trombone Choir will accompany the University Choirs during the ceremony.
