Mission Inn kicks off 27th annual Festival of Lights
The holiday spirit was bright in Riverside as hundreds of people kicked off the 27th annual Festival of Lights. Owners of the Mission Inn in Riverside switched on the lights and rang in the holiday season in style. This year's "Winter Wonderland" display will feature over 5 million lights, 400 animated figures, the world's largest ersatz sprig of mistletoe, a 19-fit noble fir Christmas tree, and a life-size gingerbread house.
