Wayne County Lightfest Celebrates 20th Anniversary

The largest and longest drive-through holiday light show in the Midwest runs from Nov. 14 to Dec. 31, but will be closed on Christmas Day.

Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano and Santa will flip the switch to light up more than four miles of Hines Drive for Lightfest’s 20th Anniversary Lights-On Celebration Ceremony. The ceremony will feature a fireworks show, music, entertainment and refreshments.

“The kickoff of Lightfest is one of our most anticipated events for people of all ages” said Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano. “I encourage the public to experience Lightfest and all of our great family-oriented events offered by Wayne County Parks,” Ficano added.

In recognition of the 20th Anniversary of Lightfest, two new displays have been added and the entire light show has been converted to LED lights. As the Midwest’s largest and longest drive-through light show, Lightfest features more than 47 giant animated holiday themed.
