Support The Light Festival’s 2026 Restaurant Partners!
The Portland Winter Light Festival loves celebrating and supporting the local businesses that make Portland such a vibrant place to gather. This year, we’re thrilled to launch a Restaurant Partner Program, featuring beloved Portland restaurants and bars offering special menu items, cocktails and promotions during the Festival. Even better, each participating restaurant is donating a portion of proceeds to support the Portland Winter Light Festival, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Many of our Restaurant Partners are also hosting art installations inside their spaces, so you can experience Light Festival magic while enjoying something delicious!
Please alert your server when ordering and let them know you’re there for the Portland Winter Light Festival. And, be sure to check each restaurant’s website and social channels for current hours and details.
