The 31st annual Umpqua Valley Festival of Lights opens at River Forks Park November 19th, 2023, and runs through January 1st, 2024. The Festival of Lights has become an annual tradition in Douglas County, drawing 25,000 visitors per year and generating thousands of dollars for Rotary Club scholarships and service projects.
Launched by the Roseburg Rotary Club in 1993, the Festival continues to feature more than a half-million lights and over 90 displays. For just $10 per car, visitors enjoy all the traditional attractions that have made the Festival famous, including the newly refurbished World’s Largest Nutcracker and the Dutch Bros Holiday Village.
This season, a ticket to the famous drive-through also offers free entry into the Dutch Bros Holiday Village at Riversdale Grange, November 28th through Christmas Eve. Visitors to the Holiday Village will enjoy Santa Claus, their favorite characters, the model railroad, Santa collection, and decorated Christmas trees. Children can write letters to Santa, and families can purchase refreshments like cider, hot chocolate, and freshly baked treats while they enjoy the spirit of the holiday season!
Several special nights are scheduled throughout the season, allowing thousands of people to see the attractions for free through special offers from generous sponsors.

Sunday – Thursday: 5:30pm to 9:00pm
