City of Lights in Highland Park

Highland Park’s City of Lights will illuminate Highland Park starting at dusk on Friday, Nov. 28, 2025.

The holiday tradition, which started in 1993 with eight displays, now consists of more than 50 light displays including a carousel, reindeer, Christmas village, Santa listening to his favorite tunes through a jukebox, and more. Even the classic Vermont Bridge gets adorned with festive decor!

Visitors can drive through the display every evening starting at dusk. The lights will stay on all season, and Santa Claus will be there most evenings from 6-10 p.m. through Dec. 24. Admission is free.
