LL Bean’s ‘Northern Lights’ Holiday Display Is Back This Month

Maine’s most magical event is back for another year

Holiday Road Trip Idea!

From November 22nd through December 29th, LL Bean in Freeport is doing something very cool. They are converting the store and surrounding area into the perfect Christmas, which is all headlined by their Northern Lights Holiday display. And rest assured, it is awesome.

One of the great things about this time of year is that there are so many things to do, so take advantage! Put the family in the car and take a trip to shop, and take in the amazing sights and sounds. Best of all, so far, the weather has been on our side, so this is the perfect opportunity to make the voyage!
