Light the Night 2023

Every year, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation sponsors the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend, the official national tribute to those firefighters who died in the line of duty during the previous year. In 2017, the Foundation created Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters to recognize the 25th anniversary of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend. Since then, Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters has expanded to include fire departments and families lighting their homes in red.

 

As dusk turns to dark, landmarks, homes, fire service organizations, and businesses across the country will again glow in respect from May 4-7, 2023, to the fallen and their families.

 

The City of Los Angeles landmarks of Los Angeles International Airport and City Hall shone in red in honor of Fallen Firefighters everywhere.
