Holiday Light Fantasia: Volunteers Needed

Holiday Light Fantasia, proudly presented by Johnson Brunetti, is a Hartford tradition and the largest fundraising event Channel 3 Kids Camp presents each year, bringing in over 100,000 visitors and important financial support for year-round programs. Set up will begin in Goodwin Park in early October and will continue until opening day on November 28, 2019. The light show runs nightly through January 1, 2020.

This event would not be possible without the help and support of hundreds of volunteers. Volunteers assist with getting displays out of storage, testing displays, replacing bulbs and setting up displays along the 2-mile road through Goodwin Park. Opportunities are available to work at the entrance gates throughout the 35-night event. Approximately 6-10 people are needed each night to successfully operate the show. This is a great team building opportunity for local businesses as their role is to greet cars and share their holiday spirit.

For more information about these volunteer opportunities, contact Special Events Manager, Jana Tierney at 860-742-2267 x 112.
