A Season of Lights & Community

Promote Fox Lake hosts an annual Holiday Light Show at the Fox Lake Community Garden, right across from Town Center Plaza. Visitors can park their cars, enjoy the light show from their vehicle, and tune into our synchronized FM radio station 89.9 to listen to the Christmas music that powers the display.

The show kicks off every year on the same night as the Festival of Lights Parade, starting at Grant High School and ending at Millennium Park. As the parade concludes, the light show officially begins.

What To Expect

      • Drive-in style experience! Watch the show directly from your vehicle
      • Animated light displays set to classic holiday songs
      • Family-friendly atmosphere for all ages
      • Runs nightly throughout the holiday season — no tickets required
      • A seasonal tradition enjoyed by both residents and visitor

Community Impact

The Fox Lake Holiday Light Show has become a seasonal tradition that brings people together and creates a sense of connection during the holidays. As a free, drive-in experience, it offers a simple way for families, friends, and visitors to enjoy the season in a welcoming environment.

The event has grown each year through local support, sponsorships, and community interest, and it continues to serve as a gathering point that reflects the spirit of Fox Lake.

The light show brings value to the community by:

      • Creating a shared seasonal experience

      • Adding to Fox Lake’s holiday attractions

      • Encouraging local pride and participation

      • Providing an enjoyable event for residents and visitors alike

This annual event is made possible with the help of local partners who support its growth and continued tradition. We are proud to recognize this year’s sponsors:
