Lights of the Ozarks Parade

The Lights of the Ozarks Parade will wind through downtown Fayetteville on Thursday, December 4 starting at 6:30 p.m.
Around 50 floats and groups will progress along East Avenue, clockwise around the Square, and northward on Block Avenue.

After the parade, Santa and Mrs. Claus will be available to greet visitors at Santa’s Workshop near the corner of Center Street and East Avenue.

Lights of the Ozarks, the longstanding holiday light display presented by Experience Fayetteville and the City of Fayetteville’s Department of Parks, Natural Resources and Cultural Affairs will continue through January 1, 2025, with lights shining each night on the Historic Downtown Fayetteville Square from 5:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.

Along with the dazzling display of twinkle lights, you'll find a festive selection of seasonal activities, holiday music, winter treats, hot cocoa, and vendors on the Downtown Square each night during Lights of the Ozarks.
