One of Shelbyville’s largest holiday features will be making its way soon to Forest Park in Shelbyville. The Festival of Lights will be available to view from November 17th to December 31st, 2023. The lights will be on display from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 5:00 p.m. to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday.
Bill Bly, Director of Operations for the Festival of Lights has been involved for 20 years, Bly explained his role and how the festival got its start.
Bly says this year will be better and brighter than years past, saying citizens will be surprised with the final result.
Past Festival of Light events have included different modes of transportation through the display to get all members of the community involved. Bly says he would enjoy seeing the senior citizen communities travel through on their buses.
Bill Bly appeared as a guest on the WTIM Morning Show live from our Downtown studios in Shelbyville.
