With one mile of sparking lights and one month of magical nights, the 16th season of the Aurora Festival of Lights Drive-Thru will open on Friday, Nov. 25!

One of the largest free drive-thru holiday light displays in the region, the Aurora Festival of Lights runs from Friday, Nov. 25 through Sunday, Dec. 25, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. every night at Phillips Park, 100 Ray Moses Drive.

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.

Admission is free, but visitors must register for an entry ticket at www.aurora-il.org/FestivalofLights.

More than 50,000 vehicles visited the festival last year, and voluntary, free-will donations at the conclusion of the event help to provide support to dozens of non-profit and youth organizations in Aurora.

Gather the family, bundle up, jump in the car and make holiday memories at the Aurora Festival of Lights.
