Highland Festival of Lights: A Glowing Season at Main Square Park

Highland's Festival of Lights turns Main Square Park into a glowing winter scene from late November through early January, with New Year's Eve fireworks and a closing tree-burning in early January.

Highland's Festival of Lights transforms Main Square Park into a glowing winter destination from late November through early January. The seasonal display lights up the park's trees and paths for family strolls, then caps the season with New Year's Eve fireworks and a closing tree-burning in early January. It is a relaxed, close-to-home way to spend a winter evening, and it pairs easily with a stop at the Highland Farmers Market's winter schedule or a walk along the Erie-Lackawanna Trail. Check the Highland Parks & Recreation events page as the holidays near for the exact opening night.
