This past year the 51st annual Rockford 4th of July Celebration was one of the best ever! Planning is underway for 2015, with many new and exciting events in downtown Rockford.

The 2014 Holiday Festival of Lights was a great success!  17,080 cars and 11 tour buses, (an estimated 45,000+ people) toured the color-packed festive displays in Sinnissippi Park.  And, planning is already underway for 2015, expected to be the largest and most exciting event in the festival's 26-year history!

"What makes these celebrations great is the great people in this community.  This year we're looking forward to our best events ever ... please join us, it won't be the same without you!"
