Red River Torchlight Parade and Fireworks March 7, 2026

A wide view of the torchlight parade and fireworks over Red River at night.

Experience the magic of winter in New Mexico! Join us for a spectacular evening as the night sky over Red River transforms into a canvas of light and color.

The festivities begin at the base of the mountain near the rustic Lift House, where you can watch a glowing trail of skiers gracefully descend the slopes carrying bright red torches. This mesmerizing "river of fire" is immediately followed by a world-class fireworks display that echoes through the canyon.
