OUR STORY

Welcome to Holiday Lights at the Lake, a beloved community event established in 2021. We strive to create a magical experience for Iowa City and its surrounding communities. Our event not only brings joy and festive spirit also supports The Bird House, Hospice Home of Johnson County. Join us in celebrating the season while making a positive impact in our community!

Dedicated volunteers work tirelessly year-round to design, plan, and fundraise for this festive tradition, bringing joy and light to our community during the holiday season.
