A River Borough Where Apple Festival Warmth Glows All December Long

New Cumberland is a charming Susquehanna River borough in eastern Cumberland County where small-town traditions, walkable streets, and a deep sense of community create one of the West Shore's most welcoming places to call home. When the holiday season arrives, Penn Holiday Lights brings that same Apple Festival warmth to every block, transforming New Cumberland's diverse residential neighborhoods into festive seasonal showcases. The borough's architectural character tells the story of a community that has evolved gracefully over generations. Near the river, stately Victorians with wraparound porches and ornate millwork stand as testaments to New Cumberland's prosperous past, their intricate details perfectly suited for elegant holiday lighting that highlights every architectural flourish. Farther from the waterfront, comfortable mid-century ranches, well-maintained Cape Cods, and newer residential developments offer a wonderful variety of homes that each benefit from custom-designed lighting packages. Bridge Street forms the borough's walkable downtown spine, connecting residents to local shops and the tight-knit commercial district that comes alive during the holiday season. The New Cumberland Borough Park provides green space for community gatherings, and the Apple Festival Grounds host one of the region's most beloved autumn traditions — a spirit of celebration that carries naturally into December. The New Cumberland Defense Depot, a major regional employer, underscores the borough's connection to the broader Cumberland Valley community. Living along the Susquehanna gives New Cumberland a unique advantage during the holidays: homes with river exposure can create displays visible from the water and from neighboring communities across the river in Harrisburg. Our team understands how to maximize this dramatic positioning with strategic lighting placement that creates stunning curb appeal from multiple vantage points. The nearby communities of Camp Hill, Lemoyne, and Wormleysburg share in the West Shore's festive energy, and New Cumberland homeowners take genuine pride in contributing to the region's holiday character. Penn Holiday Lights delivers commercial-grade LED materials, expert installation, and complete seasonal service from design through takedown.
