Lake Havasu City Events
Lake Havasu City has become a “Special Events Mecca.” Near-perfect weather facilitates many special events in Lake Havasu City. Annual events such as the Skat-Trak World Championships (the culmination of the professional personal watercraft tour), the Relics and Rods Run to the Sun (a pre-1960 specialty street rod car show), and the Winter-blast Western Pyrotechnics Convention and Fireworks Show attract avid audiences.
Durring the Christmas Holidays, Lake Havasu hosts one of its largest events, the Festival of Lights, featuring more than a million lights illuminating the London Bridge and surrounding shops of the English Village from late November through early January. The Festival of Lights creates a dazzling classic holiday scene for visitors from throughout the country. For those seeking a charming small town Dickens-like holiday atmosphere, the Festival of Lights is hard to beat.
Many people travel to Lake Havasu to visit the city’s most popular man-made attraction - the world-famous London Bridge. Purchased for $2,460,000 by city founder Robert McCulloch, the famous span of England’s River Thames was relocated to its Lake Havasu home in 1971, block by sequentially numbered block. Each October, Lake Havasu City celebrates the arrival of the world’s largest antique during London Bridge Days, an annual celebration featuring High Tea with the “Queen,” music concerts under the bridge and a grand parade. For those still wondering, yes it really is the actual London Bridge (pictured below) – replete with pocks left by a Nazi strafing run during WWII.
Lake Havasu is also a boating and fishing enthusiasts paradise, with numerous public boat launch ramps and plenty of water sports opportunities, boaters and fishing fans will find plenty of fun in the sun here.
