Come to the Fantasy of Lights after the Downtown Night of Lights on Thanksgiving Eve<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(November 24, 2015) – The 21st Annual Fantasy of Lights opens tomorrow, November 25th and event leaders are inviting the Fort Wayne Community to hop in their warm car and continue their holiday festivities after the Night of Lights in Downtown Fort Wayne and driving to Franke Park for a 1 \u00c2\u00bd mile loop to view 81 larger-than-life animated holiday light displays.<\/p>\n

Fantasy of Lights begins at Franke Park at 6:00 PM until 9:00 PM, one hour longer than the end of the Parkview Field fireworks. Santa Clause will ride around Franke Park tomorrow from 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM on a beautifully hand crafted carriage kicking off the six week event by lighting the night sky with an array of colourful, animated light displays which truly starts putting you in that holiday spirit.<\/p>\n

This year we will have weekly competitions involving the whole family! Dress up your car, post a picture on our Facebook page- Fort Wayne Fantasy of Lights and see what you could win! Also make sure you keep an eye out for the photographer who will also be posting the nightly photos on the Facebook page.<\/p>\n

Bring the whole family and “Light Up Your Silent Night.” Entrance fee per car is $5.00.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
