An illuminated backpack assembly includes a backpack that is wearable on a user's back. A plurality of light strips is each attached to the backpack to emit light outwardly from the backpack. Each of the light strips is strategically positioned on the backpack for enhancing visibility of the backpack in a darkened environment to facilitate the user to be visually identified by a companion from a distance in the darkened environment. A communication unit is integrated into the backpack and the communication unit is in remote communication with a personal electronic device. The communication unit is in communication with each of the light strips and the communication unit downloads an operational subroutine from the personal electronic device. In this way the light strips can be actuated according to the operational subroutine to enhance the ornamental appearance of the backpack.
