Winter Wonderland at The Falls!

Next date: Friday, November 20, 2026 | 05:00 PM

Falls Park becomes a magical place during the holiday season. Enjoy Winter Wonderland at The Falls from November to January as thousands of twinkling lights transform our park.

Winter Wonderland kicks off on Friday, November 20, at 5 p.m. with the lighting of The Falls. Stay and join us at 6 p.m. for the lighting of the large Holiday tree in its new home at Jacobson Plaza, followed by a festive fireworks show.

This year marks the 23rd consecutive year of the Winter Wonderland light display.

What began as a few light strands and a single reindeer has grown from Falls Park to Jacobson Plaza. This year, you’ll be able to enjoy:

• Over 29 miles of shimmering lights
• The large City Holiday Tree
• Expanding the light show to Levitt at The Falls
• 280 decorated trees
• Additional Holiday structures throughout Falls Park & Jacobson Plaza

The lights and holiday music will turn on daily from 5 p.m. to midnight, ending Sunday, January 3, 2027. There is no cost to visit Falls Park, even during Winter Wonderland.

We have an exciting new addition to the light show this year! Jacobson Plaza is now the permanent home for the large Holiday tree. Parkgoers are encouraged to stroll through the lights, ice skate on the Jacobson Plaza Skate Ribbon, and grab a warm bite or drink from The Lodge.

Visitors driving through the display can tune their radio to FM 97.7 to enjoy synchronized festive music.

Falls Park is located at 131 East Falls Park Drive, just north of downtown. Drive along North Weber Avenue or North Phillips Avenue to take in the full display.
