Experience the magic of the holidays at the 12th Annual Community Holiday Light Show! Drive through historic Ballou Park and see the incredible displays built by the community.
📅 December 11-23 | 6-9PM nightly
📍 Ballou Park | 760 West Main Street
🎟️ Admission: $10 per car | $20 per passenger van/mini-bus

New for 2025! ✨
🔹Reversed Traffic Flow: We've switched things up! This year, cars will enter from the Park Avenue entrance, then drive across the front of the park before turning left to go through the displays. Don't worry, we'll post a new map online to guide you.
🔹Introducing "The North Pole": The activity area inside Ballou Recreation Center, formerly known as Children’s Village, is now The North Pole! The new name better reflects that everyone is welcome to join in the festive fun.
🔹Walk-Through Only Nights: You asked, and we listened! On December 15 & 16, the park will be open to walkers only. For the same admission price, you can take a leisurely stroll through the dazzling displays. No vehicles will be allowed to drive through the displays on these two nights.

Get Involved! ✨
Want to be part of the magic, there's still time to build your own display! Entry is free, and your display can be store-bought or homemade. Your group doesn't have to be present nightly, making it easy to participate.
Inside The North Pole, you'll find even more fun included with your admission. Take pictures with Santa upstairs and keep an eye out for a special activity schedule, which will be posted soon.
