Houston's Reliant Lights Mayor's Holiday Spectacular 2020

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Feeling in the holiday spirit?

Even if you're not just yet, this may help.

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner is hosting the "Reliant Lights Mayor's Holiday Spectacular -101 years of Holiday Cheer."

ABC13 is the exclusive television partner of the event, which similar to July 4th's "Freedom Over Texas" celebration, will not have an audience.

If you miss out on Saturday's event, the show will be rebroadcast on abc13.com on Dec. 18 at 7 p.m.

To keep in line with COVID-19 health and safety protocols, many holiday traditions both new and old will be featured through live and pre-recorded methods, as well as virtual vignettes from local, regional and national entertainers.

Who is headlining the event?

• Robert Glasper, pianist and record producer, nominated for seven Grammy Awards, winning three and one Emmy Award, is known for delivering mellow, complex compositions with a subtle hip-hop influence.

• Ledisi, an R&B and jazz recording artist, songwriter, actress and twelve-time Grammy Award nominee. Known for her 2011 R&B hit "Pieces of Me," and 2019's "High," her first foray into the "trap soul" vibe.

• American Idol's Laci Kaye Booth, a true child of Texas, growing up in Livingston, she is a self-taught musician playing guitar and carrying a voice full of soul.
