Gurnee celebrates the season with ‘Holiday Lights’

Starting at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 21, celebrate the joy of the season with holiday carolers, a craft station, s'mores and special visits from none other than Santa and Mrs. Claus.

“Holiday Lights” is brought to the community by Gurnee Park District in partnership with the village of Gurnee, the village of Gurnee’s Chamber of Commerce, and Gurnee Community Church.

As part of the Gurnee Park District’s commitment to giving back, guests are encouraged to bring donations in support of the Warren Township Food Pantry, spreading the spirit of generosity throughout the community.

Holiday Lights is sponsored by bcu, Dwells Automotive, Forest Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry, Gurnee Community Bank, IMEG and Orthodontic Specialists of Lake County.

Come light up the night and usher in the holiday season with joy, togetherness, and cherished memories at ‘Holiday Lights.’

The event will take place from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in Welton Plaza, west of Gurnee Community Church, 4555 Old Grand Ave., Gurnee.

Old Grand Avenue will close from Emerald to O’Plaine during the event. Parking is available at Viking Middle School, Viking Park, and Warren Township High School.

After the lighting, continue for more fun indoors at Gurnee Community Church.
