Festival of Lights Sponsorship Opportunities

The holiday season is just around the corner, which means the Festival of Lights is too! The City’s Lighting Display Committee is seeking donations from organizations, groups, clubs, industries and private citizens interested in supporting this beloved holiday tradition for another season.

This year’s festival will kick off with a launch event on Friday, Nov. 20 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Jane Forrester Park. The night will feature live music, food vendors, Santa and Mrs. Claus, a drone light show and more. More exciting details on the event will be released closer to the date and residents are encouraged to stay tuned to the Festival of Lights webpage for future updates.  

“The Festival of Lights is a tradition that brings our community together and helps make the holiday season in Belleville so special,” said Lighting Display Committee Chair Councillor Garnet Thompson. “We are excited to welcome residents and visitors back for another season and to share what we have planned for this year’s display. None of this would be possible without the incredible generosity of our donors and community partners. On behalf of the committee, I want to thank everyone who continues to support the Festival of Lights and helps us keep this beloved tradition shining year after year.”

Funds raised for the Festival of Lights go towards the launch event and refurbishing existing displays, replacing bulbs and/or purchasing new displays. Donations of all sizes are welcome and will receive a charitable tax receipt from the City of Belleville.

Those interested in donating can now do so online.
