A MILE OF SPARKING LIGHTS! A MONTH OF MAGICAL NIGHTS!
The Aurora Festival of Lights –the largest free outdoor drive-through holiday light display in the region - returns for its 18th year with dazzling displays and merry music that will delight children and adults.
The Aurora Festival of Lights opens on Friday, November 29, and runs through Sunday, December 29, each night from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Philips Park, 1000 Ray Moses Drive.
Admission is free, but visitors must register for a vehicle entry ticket here. Just one registration per vehicle is required.
Visitors will enjoy a mile of spectacular lighted displays from the comfort of the car while listening to holiday songs on a closed-circuit radio station.
This popular free holiday drive-thru features crowd-favorite displays like jumping reindeer, ice skating bears, old man winter, howling wolves, the holiday golfer, Santa’s toy factory, and fields of gigantic snowflakes, along with new displays.
Gather the family, bundle up, jump in the car and make holiday memories.
More than 50,000 vehicles visited the festival last year.
Directions: Enter at 5th Ave and Smith Blvd and head southbound on Smith Blvd to enter Phillips Park/Festival of Lights.
