Town of Farragut: Light the Park
Category: Festivals, special events, Free event, Kids, family and Meetup
From dusk to 10 p.m. nightly Nov. 25-Jan. 1, thousands of holiday lights will twinkle along Campbell Station Road as part of Light the Park. The fun begins with Countdown to Light the Park from 5:30-7 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 25. Stick around to see Santa flip the big switch, illuminating thousands of holiday lights! Live entertainment, crafts and refreshments will precede this joyous occasion.
A new addition to this year’s event is a 53’ by 33’ synthetic ice rink that will operate from Nov. 22 to Jan. 4 at Mayor Ralph McGill Plaza!
Children can get their wish lists directly to Santa by using the giant mailbox at Founders Park. Letters must be mailed by Monday, Dec. 16. Be sure to include a return address—you may get a response from the big man himself!
There will be giveaways, food trucks and caroling scheduled throughout Light the Park. Learn more by following Farragut Parks & Rec on Facebook, Instagram and X.
