December 5th will see the return of Let’s Glow SF, the largest holiday projection mapping show in the United States, return to San Francisco for its fifth year. Organized by the Downtown SF Partnership, Let’s Glow SF transforms the city’s Financial District by illuminating eight of the city’s iconic buildings, including the Pacific Exchange, Hobart Building, and Ferry Building.

Each building becomes a canvas for the art of 19 artists from around the globe, with projection handled by Panasonic. Panasonic has been the festival’s projection partner since its inception, with last year’s event utilizing 13 PT-RQ35 3-Chip DLP 4K projectors to transform the city. This year’s light shows will include the transformation of the Pacific Exchange into a playground for the deity of winter, created by Belgian artist Glitch, as well as each building being turned into giant gingerbread houses by local artist Jacob Stephens.
Let’s Glow SF is free to attend, with the projection mapping show occurring each day between 5:30pm and 10pm. The festival runs from December 5 through the 14th.
