Located in Shannon Springs Park, this festival begins on Thanksgiving through New Year's Eve, each year. The holiday display is free, however, donations are welcome to help cover the costs of maintenance of the lights and equipment.
Shannon Springs Park is a 43-acre park, and the lights are displayed throughout the park, along the driveways, on the lake, and in the grassy areas. Over 3.5 million lights are used, and there's no experience like walking across the pedestrian bridge, surrounded by light. A focal point of the display is the 172-foot lighted tree which can be seen for miles.
The festival began in 1992 and has grown each year, now attracting over 300,000 people from all over the country. This is a must-see during the Christmas season.
