DULUTH - Bentleyville started more than a decade ago and it's still a main attraction.
People of all ages and from different parts of the country come out to take the tour of thousands of lights snaking through Bayfront while enjoy eating free cookies, hot chocolate and marshmallows.
Mr. and Mrs. Claus skydived into Bentleyville with the help of Skydive Superior."We wanted to come today because it's fairly nice out,” said Diana Fagerberg from Anooka. “We'd never been here so we wanted to see Santa parachute in and we saw that from the parking lot. It looks pretty neat, we're pretty impressed with all the lights."
Bentleyville is also taking donations of unwrapped gifts and canned food for the salvation army.
The event is free and open to the public and will remain open through December 27th.
