Collaborating with Merchants of Chester in December 2020 to bring joy, beauty, and light during the long nights of the winter months, the Chester Stars by local artist Christopher Owens, quickly sparked from a mural of sponsored stars purchased and named for loved ones, into a super-nova that grew to be much, much more!!

Now in their third season, the Chester Stars will continue to delight on-lookers as a star-burst of over 150 glowing sculptures illuminated a wave of twinkling light along Main Street.

The 2022 season saw the addition of the Wish Booth, a permanent installation on Main Street, where you can deliver your wishes and dreams to the universe!

This season’s Starry Night’s Illumination Celebration will take place on the First Friday - December 1st - at 5:45 p.m. in Chester Village!

The stars will glow nightly from sunset to 9:00 p.m. from Dec 2nd through February 14, 2024.

This lovely scene is not to be missed and is best enjoyed after a bit of shopping and a lovely dinner!

Thank you for visiting Chester!
