(Beaver Falls, PA) A popular Beaver County Christmas event known as the Beaver County Christmas Extravaganza is ending permanently after 35 years. According to a statement posted recently on social media, Amy Wisbith Tyger, the daughter of the event’s late chairman Ronald Wisbith, said the festival committee has decided to end the annual event “with a heavy heart.” Tyger also noted that the death of her father on April 9th, 2025 as well as a lack of volunteers to help set up, tear down and work at the event were the main reasons for this decision. The Beaver County Christmas Extravaganza was a post-Thanksgiving event that was held at the Brady’s Run Lodge in Beaver Falls full of Christmas trees and other decorations to help begin the holiday season in Beaver County. It was originally founded back in 1989 as the Beaver County Festival of Trees and it had its final showing last year in 2024 from November 28th-December 1st and December 6th-8th with an award ceremony being held on December 12th.
