Wintrust Magnificent Mile Lights Festival

For thirty-two years, The Wintrust Magnificent Mile Lights Festival® has been a thrilling celebration: A day-through-night, mile-long holiday extravaganza. Its centerpiece is the largest nighttime parade in the United States. Led by Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse of Walt Disney World® Resort, the spectacular parade down North Michigan Avenue features fabulous floats, giant helium balloons, marching bands from across the country, popular celebrities, musical performances, Santa Claus on Wintrust's grand finale float, The Wintrust Fireworks Spectacular, and one million lights illuminating The Magnificent Mile's 200+ trees.

Enjoy a festive thoroughfare of booths and free family activities all on Lights Festival Lane.
