The LuminoCity Festival, a popular holiday lights extravaganza, is back at Nassau County’s Eisenhower Park this winter with an all-new theme and attractions.
This year’s theme, “Fantasy Winter Fairyland,” transforms 14 acres of the park into one of the largest immersive walk-through light festivals in the country, featuring dazzling light displays, towering sculptures, and countless photo opportunities.
“Each time we return to this remarkable venue is yet another opportunity to deliver on a promise we renew annually — to create indelible holiday memories for each and every one of our guests,” Xiaoyi Chen, founder and chief executive of LuminoCity said. “We are proud to partner with Nassau County once more to present this showcase event, and are beyond thrilled that it has become a tradition for so many in the community. Long Island is our home, and there is no place like home for the holidays.”
Among this year’s attractions are a spectacular 50-foot “Castle in the Sky” — one of the tallest light sculptures in North America — a four-story Christmas tree, and millions of LED lights, enough to blanket the Brooklyn Bridge. The festival will also feature winning submissions from the annual Lumi’s Utopia children’s art initiative, now in its fifth year. In partnership with the Long Island Children’s Museum, the program transforms kids’ hand-drawn creations into illuminated 3D sculptures.
“I am proud to welcome LuminoCity’s Holiday Lights Festival back to Nassau County’s Eisenhower Park for the 2025 winter season,” said Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. “Each year, this spectacular attraction draws tens of thousands of visitors from across Long Island and beyond, boosting our local economy and showcasing Nassau County as a premier destination for family-friendly events. Whether you’re a lifelong resident or visiting for the first time, I invite everyone to come experience the magic of LuminoCity right here in Eisenhower Park.”
The Eisenhower Park event remains LuminoCity’s longest-running signature festival. Since its debut in 2022, more than 160,000 guests have attended.
