33 Years Lighting Up the Holidays!
This FREE event has become a state-line family tradition since 1989. Founded by Mr. Fourth of July, Joe Marino, and The Rockford Park Districts, John Peterson, FOL began with just 11 displays and has now grown to over 85 displays!
Displays seen throughout the park are either rented from the Festival of Lights Committee or built and installed by local individuals, community organizations or businesses.
Please visit the list of participating businesses in the middle of this page.
As of late 2017, FOL began to repair, replace and reorganize it's holiday displays. Our volunteer committee is dedicated and committed to bringing the people of this community a wonderful, drive through light display year after year.
For 2022, we have invested in even more new displays...make sure you take a look and let us know what you liked about this year's Festival of Lights!
