‘Holiday in Lights’ is back

“Holiday In Lights” is back at the Anoka County Fairgrounds on December 9-11, from 5 to 9 pm. The public is invited to an in-person holiday event. 

The “Holiday in Lights” in-person three-day event will have bonfires, live Christmas music, lights walk-through, snacks, a Santa House, the Lights Competition, hayrides, and MORE. 

“This is the first year we are bringing back the ‘Holiday in Lights’ in-person three-day event since 2019. The board of directors and I are really looking forward to bringing this tradition back for many families in the community,” said fair manager Michaela Liebl. 

This event is free to the public. Freewill donations, toy donations, or canned food donations are appreciated. “This event is one of the many ways we as a fair want to give back to the community. By offering this free event, we hope that people will donate more to the causes that help the local community,” said fair board president Michael Ahlers. 

Besides the in-person event, there will also be a free “Holiday in Lights” drive-thru from Dec.12 until Dec. 26. This event encourages people to experience the lights at the fairgrounds. For more info, visit www.anokacountyfair.com.
