About it
For over 40 years the southwest Florida holiday season officially begins on the first Saturday of December when over 20,000 people gather for the largest celebration between Tampa and Miami. The Holiday Festival of Lights is a Cape Coral heritage event held on Cape Coral Parkway in Downtown Cape Coral. The stars of the night are the official lighting of the city Christmas tree and Santa Claus, who arrives to light the tree and meet the children, including FREE pictures with Santa. Throughout the 3/4-mile event will be 3 Holiday performance stages with local dance troupes, schools, choirs and others performing holiday programs. The Holiday Festival of Lights will have a variety of sponsors and vendors that will line the Parkway, many offering FREE gifts and registration for prizes, along with food vendors providing a multitude of festival food. The Holiday Festival of Light is the “biggest smalltown holiday celebration” in the country and should not be missed!
