More than 20,000 lights covering the equivalent of five miles is the scene visitors to Buda’s Stagecoach Park can expect when the city’s 9th annual Trail of Lights event opens up next month.

Juan Mosqueda, a member of the Buda Parks and Recreation department, said the event started as a small, local holiday celebration that has grown to accommodate 12,000 to 15,000 people each year.

It takes one month for crews to set up for the seven-day event. Set up involved closing Stagecoach Park to drive through traffic on Nov. 1. Opening night is set  for Dec. 7, which is also Senior Night.
