Visits with Santa at Lights of the Ozarks

Bring your little ones to Santa's Workshop for a chance to meet the big guy in red! This FREE beloved holiday tradition is back, giving children of all ages the opportunity to share their Christmas wish lists with Santa himself in his very own Fayetteville workshop.
When & Where:
Santa will be in his workshop on S East Avenue from 6–8pm on Fridays, December 4, 11, and 18!
A special thank you to Presley Paige and Holden Buildings for helping make Santa's Workshop extra magical this year.
A Few Things to Know for Lights of the Ozarks Season:
- East Street Closure: East Street will be closed to traffic from 5–10pm every evening except Mondays throughout the season. Stroll the street to enjoy snack and beverage vendors, visit Santa's Workshop, and don't forget to drop your letters to Santa in his mailbox.
- Monday Nights: Vendors, public restrooms, and the Town Center parking deck elevator will be unavailable on Monday evenings to give our hardworking staff a chance to rest and recharge.
-Lights & Hours: The display is free and open to the public every evening from 5pm to 1am through January 1, 2027.
Each year, City of Fayetteville Parks Maintenance Division employees dedicate more than 3,300 hours to transforming the Downtown Fayetteville Square into a holiday wonderland. Installation begins in October and continues through mid-November, with more than 500,000 LED lights bringing the Square to life!
Experience Fayetteville and Downtown Fayetteville Coalition send a special thank you to our season sponsors: SWEPCO, Bank of Fayetteville, BOK Financial, Adventure Subaru, Holden Buildings, Presley Paige, Stellar Party Co, and NWA Equality. Thank you for helping make this beloved holiday tradition possible!
