Bright Nights at Forest Park
Brighter than ever. Opening November 21

For the holiday season, over 600,000 lights illuminate a two and a half mile drive-through tour through picturesque Forest Park. From the new “Poinsettia Fantasy” entry to the giant Poinsettia Candles marking the exit, passengers in cars, vans, buses and campers drive by and through the magnificent displays including "Seuss Land," a one-of-a-kind display approved by the estate of Dr. Seuss, "Spirit of the Season," "Noah's Ark," "Victorian Village," "Barney Mansion," "Winter Woods," "North Pole Village," "Toy Land," and "Season's Greetings."

Bright Nights at Forest Park is produced by the Spirit of Springfield, a private non-profit organization, in conjunction with the Springfield Department of Parks, Buildings & Recreational Management.
