There will also be live entertainment such as dueling pianos, a strolling a cappella group, a DJ block party and more.

RWS Entertainment Group is again partnering with Give Kids the World and Island H2O Water Park to produce the event, the news release states.

The event is still hosted by Give Kids the World, with proceeds from the event still benefitting Give Kids the World Village, the 89-acre nonprofit resort that provides critically ill children and their families from around the world a magical weeklong vacation at no cost.

“It has been a privilege to welcome in the public for a glimpse into our storybook Village during the holidays the past two years. However, in order to preserve the life-changing experience we provide to wish families as increased numbers of guests are able to visit, we have made the decision to move Night of a Million Lights off-site — and truly appreciate Island H2O Water Park’s generosity, hospitality and support,” said Give Kids The World President & CEO Pamela Landwirth. “We look forward to joining with Island H2O, sponsors, volunteers and community members to celebrate the season of joy and giving while making an immeasurable impact on the families we serve.”

In previous years, Night of a Million Lights lit up Give Kids the World Village. It was moved this year to accommodate the influx of wish families to the Village back to pre-pandemic levels.
