Make Family Memories at Rockford’s “Holi-Neigh” Event at Lockwood Park

Family-friendly fun and plenty of Christmas cheer await at Lockwood Park's
Holi-Neigh" event happening this December in Rockford.

Family-Friendly Holiday Events in Rockford, Illinois

The holiday season is meant to be spent with the ones you love most, so my husband and I try really hard to take our kids to as many Christmas events as possible each year.

Family baking and movie nights, Christmas light rides, visits with Santa, and a stroll through the outdoor lights at Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens are some of our yearly must-dos, but we are always looking for more fun things to add the list. Luckily, I just found one that is PERFECT for my animal-loving family.

Holi-Neigh at Lockwood Park

Lockwood Park is one of my family's most beloved attractions in Rockford thanks to the children's farm, huge playground, and horses that live there, and this December it will be transformed into a winter wonderland for Holi-Neigh.

Whether you're young or just young at heart, I'm pretty sure Holi-Neigh will feature something that everyone will enjoy.

Holi-Neigh will have holiday crafts and games for kids, family photos with a pony, Christmas movies on a big screen, a luminary-lighted walkway up to Sarver Children’s Farm, letters for Santa, and more cool festive things to see and do.

One of Holi-Neigh's most popular highlights though is the tractor-drawn, lighted wagon rides, which will take you on a journey through a beautifully decorated trail with a stop to enjoy a holiday story and s'mores!

When Is Holi-Neigh at Lockwood Park?

Holi-Neigh will take place on two days only at Lockwood Park; Saturday, December 7 and 14 from 4 to 8 p.m.  Admission wristbands are on sale now for $15 and can be purchased online, here.
