The LuminoCity Holiday Lights Festival — Fantasy Winter Fairyland

LuminoCity transforms Eisenhower Park into a 14-acre, after-dark wonderland of towering light sculptures, glowing tunnels, and nonstop photo moments — a perfect mix of luxe date-night energy and kid-approved magic. This year’s theme, Fantasy Winter Fairyland, features 50+ installations anchored by showstoppers like the Castle in the Sky, a 40-ft Christmas Tree, the Snow Dream Slide, and the Lumi Express Holiday Train. Expect immersive paths, big ‘wow’ reveals, and plenty of spots to grab that holiday-card shot.

The festival runs November 7, 2025 through January 1, 2026 at Eisenhower Park, 1899 Hempstead Tpke, East Meadow, NY, with timed-entry tickets and free onsite parking. It’s designed for easy arrivals and smooth flow once you’re inside, making it an easy win for couples, families, and friend groups who want something elevated without leaving Long Island.

Why it hits: polished production, big-scale art, and a festive scene that feels premium but still down-to-earth. Grab a prime time slot, layer up, and plan a cozy bite nearby to make it a full night out.
