Hi guys!
Today, I’m sharing about my trip to Pittsburgh Light Up Night last weekend. I went with my good friends Bailey and Olivia and a few other friends from school. Bailey and I met last year through mutual friends and work and the first time we hung out was at Light Up Night. Last semester we spent a lot of time together through work and this semester we practically spend every Tuesdays and Thursdays together since we have a lot of the same classes and schedules. I’m so glad we have gotten so close the past year. She has been the absolute best person to have in my life this past year.
We decided to get into the holiday spirit by going to Light Up Night together to not only celebrate Christmas but also out friend-aversy.
Here’s a look into our fun night together in Pittsburgh!
We started our night with burgers and shakes at Burgatory on the North Shore It was so good, Friday was definitely our cheat day and we took full advantage of it.
After we ate we took the T (Pittsburgh’s subway system over to Market Square, we looked at all the little shops and stopped to see all the decorations.
Once we finished in Market Square we headed over to the PPG skating rink where the tree was and we stopped to get some pictures.
There were concerts going on all around the city so we stopped to listen to some live music and got some drinks to keep us warm. We made our way back to the North Shore via the T and we watched the fireworks.
It was a 15 minute show and the fireworks were gorgeous over the water with the city in the background. That concluded our night in the city, we headed back to school with Christmas joy filled in our hearts.
I love going to Light Up Night, I’ve gone for the past three years and it is my favorite way to kick off the holiday season. The city is gorgeous with all the decorations. I can’t wait to start decorating for Christmas after Thanksgiving.
Speaking of Thanksgiving, I’m going to be taking Thursday off to spend some time with family and enjoy the holidays. I’ll be back here next Tuesday! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

You got it. You are in the Christmas spirit
Pittsburgh is a wonderful city and we enjoyed viewing the city lit up one evening. Definitely put us in the Christmas spirit! We also remember the families & friends who lost loved ones during the Tree of Life shooting.
Absolutely. We had so much fun but especially with the shooting hitting so close to home it was important to remember those who had lost their lives
