The entire extended family went to see the Christmas light display at Lilacia Park - it was early on New Years Eve, just after dark. The display was extensive and was FABULOUS & enjoyed by all ages, toddler to retirees! The venue was free of charge (although I think before Christmas you were asked to bring & donate canned goods.) My only suggestion would be to have a few lights along the pathway as a guide because it was fairly dark as you walked through the park.All in all we enjoyed ourselves very much so if you can, bring the whole Fam next time, in December 2022!
A beautiful park to visit especially in early May when the lilacs are blooming and the tulips look their best. Its not too large and can be seen in half an hour to an hour.
We stopped here on a whim and so glad we did. We werent expecting very much because of the cold and it being early April. We really enjoyed our time here. Everything is clearly named. The walkways were even and free from debris. A very well kept park. Even though its quite a drive from us, we are talking about going back when theres more in bloom.
The beautiful Lilacia Park was even more beautiful on this day of the Lilac Parade in Lombard. What a lovely collection of exquisite blooms!
BEAUTIFUL PARK TO TAKE A WALK IN DURING ALL SEASONS!!THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ARE THE BEST IN ILLINOIS FOR FREE!!THANK YOU LOMBARD PARK DISTRICT FOR ALL YOU DO TO MAKE THE PARK A MUST SEE IN LOMBARD!!🎄🌲🧑🎄🎅🎁✝️
One of the prettiest spots you can go this time of year and enjoy SPRING for free with the family. Also a nice spot to do a pre-dance photo shoot.
Beautiful park, visited more than 20 years ago and it was heart warming to visit again..
Absolutely beautiful park with every color lilacs and tulips
Nice little park with an exceptional spring flower display.
A Lombard native enlightened me about this hidden treasure in the downtown area. Truly stunning in the spring with lilacs and tulips in bloom. Great walking outing - will return for other park events throughout the year. No problem with parking and train stop is less then 50 yards away.
Visiting is a tradition passed down generations. Peaceful, quaint and tucked away!
Adorable little place highly recommend very well maintained smells beautiful in the spring and they do a great job during Christmas
Its springtime at Lilacia! The lilacs are just beginning to bloom; the tulips and daffodils are in full swing. Park can be busy on weekends but it is a great place for photos or bring a blanket and some food for a sweetly-scented picnic.
We loved this hidden little gem.....so peaceful and pretty. Great place to stroll, take pictures, have a picnic, read a book, and just enjoy a quiet park.
For a free event, its an amazing one, but I just wish there was a hot cocoa stand.
I love Lilacia Park. It has been our Mothers Day tradition for 25 years, since my kids were little. The Metra UP-W brings us right to the door; allbeit on a limited schedule. Lilac Time is the first two weeks of May and it is glorious when we hit the peak blooming times, like today. Perfectly complementing the countless lilac trees are the bright tulip beds, gently meandering paths, and central lawn and pond. This place is a joyful wonderland for children, and endlessly photogenic for delighted parents and grandparents. (It must be popular for prom photos as well.) The cute gift shop, in Colonel Plums manor house, confirms that lilacs can be painted or quilted onto almost anything. The village is proud of their park and the grounds are very well maintained. Bring your own lunch; there are plenty of benches, and room for picnic blankets.
An oasis and a gem in the middle of downtown Lombard! Peaceful and tranquil and has plenty of benches and tables to stay awhile. Beautiful greenery and flowers all throughout! Great place to relax, picnic, walk the trails for exercise, take quality pictures and read a book (library next door). Not too busy during the week, but very busy on Sundays. Due to heavy pedestrian traffic, no dogs allowed.
Absolutely bliss. They take of this beautiful land all year round. I especially love threes and plants they have have there. Its a good place to take a nap or read a book etc.
Visiting Lilacia was wonderful. The lilacs were in full bloom and I have never seen them look better. The remaining tulips were beautiful. All and all, a rewarding experience.
Lilacia Park is beautiful year round. The 2021 Christmas lights were beautiful. Thank you to all the people who work at making this park such a special place to visit.
Very nice park in the area to come and enjoy a short walk. The flowers and scenery are relaxing.
Great place to walk around.Parking is a bit confusing though.
Such a great little park in the heart of a wonderful downtown. Ive been lucky enough to go in the heat of summer, and during the coronation of the Lilac Queen. I cant wait to visit more often!
Beautiful place with a great variety of lilacs, and other various plants, trees, and beautiful scenery. Not too big of a walk but lots of beauty packed in a small area.
Lovely park. The family had a great time here. Very relaxing place to visit. And the library is right there (for now) if you fancy to rent a read a book while youre relaxing.
Lilacia park is always beautiful. Free to enter, they make it a fun place to explore all times of year, but the best is in the spring! All the different species of lilac, from which the park gets its name, are in bloom and the entire park is planted with different stunning species of tulips. We came for Mothers Day this year when they had a live band playing, a mothers day concert in the park!Edit: May 17th 2022: tulips are fading, come soon.
LOVE this spot for spring flowers. The park is free, and it’s a quick walk to Dairy Queen for a treat afterwards. This is a family tradition for us.
Tulips are blooming right now and beautiful. Lilacs need another week and should be good then. Although some are out and smell great!
I love Lilacia Park! It is well tended, thoughtfully landscaped, and absolutely PACKED with flowers! I met my dad here for a picnic lunch, and whike there were a fair number of others enjoying the park, it wasnt uncomfortable. We saw at least 3 artists with supplies and folding chairs set up to paint or draw, a couple people with fancy cameras taking pictures, and families with young kids looking around at the flowers. There really is no excuse to not at least drive by to check this out if you live in the area. Plus its free!
Be aware - first off, no where on this parks website, (that I could find), did it say NO Dogs allowed, so I had taken my best fur friend on a 35 minute ride to go check out what is supposed to be one of ten botanical gardens in the state of Illinois.Second, there are signs everywhere near this park that say no parking, will be towed....from the church and library parking lot right across the street from the park, to the parking spaces at the train station on the other side of the park.In fact, it looks like the best way to get here is to take the train if you dont want the hassle of parking blocks away and walking.Since I couldnt go into the park, due to my four legged friend, we opted to walk the neighborhood block around the park.Doing this its approximately .62 miles to make the circle. You can only see the park from two sides walking the block, but you can also see the little girl statue on one side of the small library, plus some beautiful houses along the way.There was also a statue in the parking lot of what I think was a church/school, close to the train tracks.Im sure this is probably a nice little park once the flowers start to bloom, and Ive heard they have a nice Christmas lights display each winter, but if you are looking for a good walk to really streach your legs, go to another Botanical garden that allows your dog.
I cant even describe how many lights were here and it was all for free. The pictures obviously dont do it justice. Come visit while the lights are still up, not much people either.
Mid May. What a time to go! Lilacs in bloom ... and more than half the bulbs were still present in all their glory too! Compact and easy to navigate. A little gem, steps from the Metra station.
This is a gorgeous well kept park with mainly lilacs and tulips blooming in the springtime as well as flowering trees. Very peaceful and tranquil place to take a stroll. Plenty of benches and walking paths, sometimes seems like you are walking into a secluded secret garden.
This review concerns Lilacia Parks winter light display.Coming from an enthusiast of the Morton Arboretum Illumination event, this park was pretty good! Lilacia Park has a wide range of lights on display, which will take about half an hour to walk through. There are no admission lines or costs, but that also means the crowds can vary.My girl and I had a splendid time and got some neat pictures. We will definitely consider coming again.
This is the sweetest little park. It is just lovely for a private wedding ceremony. No pets allowed, but still great! Many photo opportunities. The platform is lovely and the water fountain is perfect. It is so clean and the landscaping is wonderful.
Love the lilacs! Just make sure you get there in early May, unlike me, but still, wonderful!
Nice gardens to take a walk in. Probably great to catch the lilacs in bloom. Was there a few weeks late, but the aroma was still in the air.
My wife and I hada great time at Lilacia Park today.lilacs blooming and many varieties of tulips,etc.Also had to stop at the Dairy Queen!
Love this park. Its free and during the holiday season the park is lit up with Christmas lights. Also there is Santa to visit for free there on the weekends and free hot chocolate and train rides around the park for the kids. Spring time is awesome as everything blooms, especially when all the lilacs bloom! During the summer there is many free events, like movies in the park. Under the tracks via a tunnel is nearby downtown Lombard where you can visit local shops, eat or grab a drink at the local bars!
The lights are gorgeous and there is seasonal music playing on speakers. What a lovely walk through the park with the snow falling and thousands of twinkling lights.
Went there with my wife,grand daughter,son Andy and Hannah his lady. We will go back as it was fantastic. Greatest Christmas light show around. Walked around park and enjoyed a nice evening
Just a beautiful community treasure with over 200 varieties of lilacs and 50 varieties of tulips. Smells and looks amazingly 🤩
So much fun to look at all the lights during the holiday season. My family and I loved it (especially my son) definitely part of a family tradition we have. Also a great place to go in the spring and summer to see all the pretty flowers
Its a great little park. We went to see the lilacs but we caught them late. Very few left.
May is the perfect month to visit this park. The lilacs fill the air with an aroma and the bright tulips against the rich green grass. Great place to bring kids and tots..
It’s been a week since we relocated to Naperville from St Pete Florida. My family & I love going outdoors, undoubtedly, parks are one of the best places for Fresh Air in abundance & lots of fun—So, on this Freezing though beautiful Sunday Noon & Mothers Day, My family & I planned on visiting Lilacia Park in Lombard.Luckily, there was an event going on in there, amazing Live Music & Colorful Blanket of Flowers everywhere around the Park, it was worth a visit.One of Park members passing by was distributing flowers to all the Mothers on the occasion of Mothers Day.Also, this historical park is huge, though there was an array of Spring Flowers, Tulips, Lilacs, Spring Mix, there’s no Play area for kids so we headed over to another park a mile away.#Spring #LetsGuide
Great park for all..
A local gem to admire a wide variety of tulips, and lilacs blooming parking is available and the toddlers enjoyed the walk.
Took our engagement pictures here today! Has picturesque and very well kept garden grounds.
Kind of crowded, I went on a Wednesday night around 7. Most people were wearing masks. The lights were great, however it was a very quick walk around the park and got repetitive quickly. Free parking by the train after 11am during the week!
Absolutely stunning!!! We go every year for Mothers day! Although I prefer the day AFTER because there arent as many people ;)
Love visiting in April/May. Unfortunately this year due to the cold rain snap, the flower artistry got a bit mangled. But still pretty if you know where to look.
Beautiful place to walk around and enjoy a quite, open scenery.
Very nice park featuring many species of Lilac and Tulips. Try to visit during the Rochester Lilac Festival to enjoy the best blooms. (May 11-20)
Always a beautiful place to take a walk, but this time of year is the absolute best.
Visiting the Christmas light display at Lilacia Park has become an annual tradition for our family. The number of displays packed into the park is amazing! A 30-minute walk can cover the whole park, and there is ample parking across the street. Best of all, its free!
Beautiful park year round. Daffodils and tulips in the spring. Tons of lilacs. In the winter they even set up Christmas lights. Really a stunning place for a nice walk.
Beautiful display of tulips, always a great little park
Beautiful light display. I greatly enjoyed it as a neighboring community member. Clearly thought and dedication was put into the display. Would love to see how the designers develop the display over the years--I plan to return year to year :)
A beautiful place to walk through year round. In December its like a magical lit Christmas land....Stunning! In the Spring and Summer its so lovely with flowers.
Beautiful Christmas lights during the December holidays. Come with the whole family for a walk in the park while listening to Christmas music to take pictures with. Free Parking for a quick walk-in the park.
We came to see the holiday lights display but couldnt go in because all walkways were a sheet if ice. My wife was in a wheelchair and it was impossible to push her on the icy walkways. Everyplace outside the park was salted, but nothing inside the park. We were bitterly disappointed.
A BEAUTIFUL place to visit ANY time of the year. In the spring you have all the flowers and wonderful lilacs with family activities (however my favorite event is the wine tasting), the summer has family movie nights and more, the autumn has all the beautiful colors and harvest themed events, and the winter has the holiday lights and holiday activities with the beauty of a winter wonderland. The walking paths are designed to immerse you into the park and do so well that you forget you are tucked into the downtown area. It just always has a magical feel. There are always great events to check out! And its FREE ADMISSION!(*some events may have a fee to participate, but entering the park is free) It is open 365 days a year! A great place for a wedding, photo shoot, picnic, or even just a stroll. This really is a community gem in the heart of downtown!
One of the largest Christmas walk thrus for free. Took a nice 30 mins from start to end. Asked to bring a wrapped gift donation for Toys 4 Tots-but no one was there to collect and I didnt see a place to put it. Rows and rows of lights!! The path twists n turns through different directions. Some tree lights are extremely tall and magical for little ones. Has a couple places to stop and tske photos. Parking right next to park off the tracks
Beautiful place that I never knew was there .. Great landscaping a beautiful place to walk around and enjoy
One of the most beautiful and sweet smelling parks I have ever been to. The lilacs and tulips are truly spectacular. Highly recommended!
The people born and raised in Lombard will appreciate this place more than anyone. Lately it is filled with out of county out of town visitors and people that just dont appreciate Lilacia Park for its beauty and peacefulness. Almost ruining the enjoyment while youre there. One teen drunk got in my 62 year old mothers face as she was talking to a local and screamed for no reason and continued to drink his beer. Dogs crapping next to walkways that arent supposed to be in the park. Weed smokers vaping everywhere blowing vapor that hits your kids right in the face. Bummer.
Excellent place to take your kids to see Santa and Christmas lighting decorations. We got very lucky with the weather this year. My children had a blast and the lights were very nicely done 👍 Our favorite part was definitely Santa! He was very kind to my kids and they couldnt stop talking about how nice he was. They liked the fact that he had a real beard . The only reason I didnt give it five stars is because it was hard to find a restroom or even a port a potty . If you have kids you know how important that is 😂. I would definitely recommend anyway. Great job! Merry Christmas!!
.w and my Husky Delilah walk around Lilacia Park almost everyday. OUR Favorite Park
Beautiful as always, not all lilacs were blooming yet though. Many gorgeous tulips!!!
Beautiful park! I came too late in the month to see most of the blooming lilacs but there were still flowers and it smelled heavenly!
Beautiful, peaceful place! We were here in late August so tulips were gone but definitely coming back
Perfect spot for a picnic, or to just let your kids run around and explore the beautiful plants. Its mostly enclosed, so very little chance of kids running into the street/getting into trouble
Free!!!! Amazing light display. It will take atmost 20-30 min to go around and enjoy the light displays. Go early to avoid crowds.
Beautiful city park! Got here early this year so the band was still going on. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. The tulips and lilacs were gorgeous as usual.
If youve never been you need to go. April, May is optimal. But really anytime is a good time to enjoy this well kept fragrant park.
Not all of the lilacs are in bloom, but I got some good pics anyway
Friday was my first visit to this park. The park is an absolute hidden gem. I went there on Friday afternoon and it was around 100 degrees with the humidity, so I basically had the entire place to myself. There is a brick walk way going all through out this beautiful park. There are different garden areas all over. First you might come across a large area of black eyed Susans, then you will come across a large area of cone flowers. There were several different types of lilies. This park has a lit of big old growth trees that provide shade and they have benches located all over so that you can sit in the shade and take in the view. This park is very well maintained and there was not 1 single piece of litter anywhere. I highly recommend taking a walk around this park.
One of the best Christmas light Displays around
Really nice place to take a walk around 🙂 so many flowers!! 🌷🌹🌺Definitely will be back next time the tulips are back! 🙂
Beautiful lilac festival every May and a great Christmas light show in December.
Great park. We were there when all of the lilacs were in full bloom
Beautiful Park full of Lilacs, tulips, daffodils . It is intoxicating walking through the park with all the Lilacs in bloom right now.
We both love this park. Thank you Lombard for providing thi s lovely park for the public
Enjoyed Mothers Day in a beautiful setting and a free concert. Perfect!
The park is well maintained unfortunately everything was bloomed out.Was probably peek a week ago.
Lilacia park is beautiful any time of year. In the spring there are flowers every where of every color, the summer is beautiful and green, the fall has all the beauty fall colors, and at Christmas time the lights are spectacular.
Such a beautiful serene park. Nice place to take a walk.
Always beautiful to walk around. Early to mid May is the best ❤️
Holiday light are beautiful, well down. Thanks to the city for providing a family friendly event.
Its looking so beautiful and x max light giving it more decorative and elegant look
Beautiful park, beautiful flowers in the spring in early to mid May. They put lights on all the trees around Christmas time and they have stand alone lights as well. Its very well thought out and a lot of fun for the whole family.
Beautiful! Very peaceful place - Im told that in the winter they light it up like Brookfield zoo. It must be incredible to walk around there with your family around Christmas time - I will report back!
They have an amazing Christmas light walk in winter and In spring the tulips and lilacs are absolutely breathtaking. Every time you come here People are taking maternity photos, pregnancy reveal photos, wedding photos, prom photos and more. Its a great scenery for all lifes important moments.
Beautiful garden with amazing views, with hundreds of different types of the lilac trees and thousands of gorgeous tulips! Its a historic place as well with very interesting story about who started this garden and how, and this place is more than 100 years old..!And to my surprise - nobody charging you for entrance, so there is no fee for anything. And I liked this garden even better than others, where you have to pay for everything, and I had great experience and joy from seeing so many beautiful trees and flowers and cant wait to come back during summer time to see how this beauty will change !And I know that around Christmas time they also have special events and everything decorated in Christmas lights, must be beautiful as well!
First time I had ever been there its absolutely beautiful
Its beautiful during any season and now theyre setting up the Christmas lights and they are so cute!! Another bonus is that it is free!! Great upkeep as well!!
Amazing park. Came for holiday lights and couldnt have asked for better experience. Easy parking, not crowded and lights were outstanding.
Went to see christmas lights. They do an awesome job. So beautiful and so much detail. Thank you Lombard. So enjoyable.
Well done! With Santa, hot cocoa and cookies too. Lights were amazing, especially for toddler-aged children.
Beautiful park. Not too big, but its very relaxing and nice
Great park to bring your entire family during the holidays. The city puts this great show every year.
I really liked it and all of the Christmas lights me and my family go every year and its really nice so thank you for making it free and public for everyone to walk through we also got to see Santa and take a picture with him and that was really nice so thank you.
The Christmas lights erred great. Had no idea they did this all year. They do a great job. Will definitely go back every year
Gorgeous park. Love coming here in the spring time. It may be overrun by cicadas very soon though
Such beautiful lights, great place to take the family and enjoy a night walk
Says no dogs, but I saw a lot of people with them. I have no issue with the doggies, if I knew that rule didnt matter, I wouldve brought my pup too. Either actually enforce the rule, or take it off
The Christmas light display was beautiful. Perfect place to take the grandkids to burn off a little energy while enjoying the views.
Good park to bring kids. Plenty of parking spots available
If you want a relaxing short walk surrounded by beautiful flowers come here. Nice place to relax or read book on sunny day. Peaceful with few people there during week.
Nice park. Was thinking of getting married here..but my wedding got postponed 1🙂
So beautiful around Christmas time when they have the lights up, the entire park, nice stroller around to nice everything or on some days(check their local page) you can catch a polar express ride
Beautiful park. All ages can enjoy and appreciate the beauty. Great place for photos too.
Very fun place to visit during Christmas season. The lights are amazing
Tulips looked grt! Lilacs not in bloom yet on mothers day
Gorgeous blooms and smells good too
A beautiful place for a walk or pictures. So many wonderful varieties of trees, plants and flowers. Its exceptional at lilac time, of course. But this recent trip had summer beauty blooming too!
Very pretty took some nice shots the kiddos loved seeing all the different plants and flowers. Well definitely go back this was a quick impromptu trip. We went because we were driving in the area my husband grew up. Absolutely beautiful and not too many people though it was near Im guessing closing time when we got there. My son didnt care for the nosie from the trains passing by but other than that A+ outdoor activity.
Love this gem in Lombard! Its so beautiful when the flowers & lilacs are in bloom! Sometimes just doing a drive by is required as good for the soul! Bring a box lunch and enjoy your surroundings! Also check out the bloomometer on the Lombard Park District website. Dont forget the annual Garden Club sale starts Thursday before Mothers Day!
Nice park especially in the winter time.
Always great for pokemon go! Xmas lights are magical. Careful if the historical society they were not very present
Hidden gem to see Tulips in Chicago suburb.Its a small park but they have huge variety of Tulips.
My granddaughters Willowbrook senior prom class of 2021!
I come here often. Great place to reflect and center yourself!
Beautiful gardens and lilac trees in summer, tennis bike and hiking paths you could spend days here to see it all.
This is a cute little local park, and the reason it gets 4 stars and not five is probably that its just a cute little green space. I also visited in the winter, so I imagine it looks a lot nicer with everything in bloom! That being said the size is about the area of a complete city block, has nicely maintained paths, and places to sit down.
Cozy, modern, visit free place to enjoy flowers, nice setting, and people
If you love natural beauty, the smell of flowers, Lillies and noises of nature then youve gotta come here!
Beautiful lights durung Holiday season. Next to lombard station.It has winter train ride from F-Su 6pm - 8 pm.I love this park.Beautiful lilacs durung summer.
It was Amazing.
Last year was beyond magical..they dint cover certain areas this time..was still looking beautiful but not as much as last year.
Beautiful and peaceful
Its a beautiful park within walking distance of downtown lombard. They have a wonderful tulip season during the spring. Clean and safe park. Found right beside the library for convenience. I highly recommend if you want a leisurely stroll. A literal tiptoe through the tulips if you will.
I had no idea this place existed it was absolutely beautiful and the smell was amazing
Beautiful any time of year! Very nice paths, and mostly wheelchair accessible.
Beautiful garden with tons of lilac bushes!
I went for the Christmas lights. They are amazing
This little park is simply adorable. The city dies a fabulous job creating beautiful floral plantings around their beloved lilacs. The tulip displays are very beautiful. They have a nice water feature as the focal point of the esplanade area.Pre COVID19, there were several local restaurants that offered up some great options. This town is very cute and the gardens are beautiful. Parking can be a challenge, but it is worth the effort.
Great park! Beautiful flowers...
Beautiful park with lot of colorful tulips .. must visit !
We went to see the light display. Lights all over the place, a lot of displays and on so many trees. Was nice to walk around and see all them.
If Christmas lights are your thing, a great place for a stroll. Easy parking, free entry, and a wonderful Christmas lit park.
Beautiful..just Beautiful!!❤❤❤Merry Christmas Everyone!!🎄🎄🎄🤶🎅☺☺
All the lilacs were beautiful and the scent of all of them was wonderful
So beautiful!!
Beautiful lilacs in the month of May. Great central location. Must visit!
Found so much peace here! It was absolutely breathe taking! Really enjoyed myself! Looking forward to going back!
Beautiful park. During the holidays, its transformed into a winter wonderland with lights galore. In the spring, they plant alot of tulips. Its definitely not a big park, but setup nicely.
The Christmas lights are just great. Kids love running around the park
Beautiful park. Havent been there since I was a kid. Alot different but nice. Great family place. Lots a spots to have a picnic. Beautiful flowers. So many types of lilacs.
Beautiful place, I love it. I am trying to post pictures.
Peaceful and safe location for a leisure stroll. Family events quite often. Really nice light display this year!
Beautiful, delightful scents throughout the park. Live in the area for more than 60 years and first time visit. Was not disappointed with the variety of lilacs as well as the perennials. Thanks Lombard!
A wonderful park, a perfect place for walks, but ..... beautiful illumination of the christmas lights makes an impression.
Cute! Some great holiday lights. Kids will love it! Just make sure to bundle up
Lombard really does it right with their events in Lilacia Park. The Village staff does a wonderful job maintaining the property as well.
Very nice lights and its for free plus hot chocolate and cookies😉
Absolutely beautiful Christmas lights! Breath taking!
Great little park that does a wonderful light show for Christmas ever year
So beautiful! Walkway and landscaping is very pleasant.Beautiful lilacs and lots of tulips! Its a tradition every year!
They have a great display of Christmas lights!
I love taking photos here for my Instagram in the summer,and winter with all the lights.
The sites were gorgeous! The scenery was so relaxing. It had such a beautiful and wide variety of plants. Wonderful experience!!!
Was there after a rain. The fragrance of the flowers and lilacs was intoxicating.
It is a small park and very clean and nice
This is a very beautiful and peaceful place.
Great holiday lights, fun times for the whole family
Beautiful flowers and great place for pictures
Went here for the Holiday Lights and we were not disappointed. There are so many lights in such a small space. It was fun identifying all of the different shapes. Toy soldiers, an elf driving a sports car, swans and of course Santa Claus!
Fantastic Outdoor Christmas Display. Worth the drive and free of charge to get in.
Unbelievable. The Christmas lights display rivals any around here including the show at Brookfield Zoo and Morton Arboretum. And its FREE! So many illuminated tableaus in a relatively small area. It tends to get crowded during peak times (6 - 8 pm) but still able to maintain safe distance and most were wearing masks. Together with piped in Christmas music, the variety and bright colors made for a most enjoyable hour stroll through the park. It put me in the Christmas spirit, finally .
Love the lilacs and all the winding pathways. Good place for Mothers Day or nice photos. Check the bloom tracker on the Lombard Park District site.
Amazing place for everyone; specially photographers.
A lovely little park in the heart of downtown Lombard.
Great holiday experience for all. Parking can be an issue but worth the hassle once inside the park. Magical feeling that the kids love. Go early as the line to see Santa will get long very quickly. Multiple options for photographs throughout the park.
We visited on a Wednesday night for the Christmas lights. Very few people, everyone kept their distance. Most had face masks on.We were there for about 30 minutes. Fun and small park for the family.
Very beautiful, lots of different flowers and nice paths to view it all easily.
BEAUTIFUL and FRAGRANT!And now at Christmas, FULL of lights!
Love that there is details for every section of flowers...
Really nice place to walk and relax.
Lilacia Park is a beautiful place. It is named for the outstanding collection of lilac bushes, which is constantly expanded. Every color, type, fragrance imaginable. In spring, when everything is booming, it is an amazing place to be. The park is also pretty throughout the year with beautiful trees, lots of flowers and many pretty birds. Lots of parking along the street, except during the Lilac Festival, when parking gets very tight.
This is a very beautiful park, especially when the flowers are in bloom. Its wonderful to stroll along the paths and see these gorgeous displays. When there are live music performances, the experience is even more enjoyable. Coming to this lovely park will always be a real treat. I highly recommend a visit!
There is a beautiful display of lights around the holidays that is well worth your time and it is free.
Beautiful park at all times of year but especially spring. I understand it gets crowded but the mask requirement is a little strange as it’s an outdoor space and most people come to smell the flowers.
Took my kids here. They loved it. Very peaceful
Go smell the flowers! You will love it
Beautiful spring lilacs and tulips. Comfortably sized park grounds for walking. Mostly retirees and young families. Easy street parking on weekday
Beautiful park. Well kept. Im sure it is much more beautiful when all of the flowers are in bloom. But even though not all of the flowers were in bloom, the greenery is beautiful and a nice variety. Great paver trails. Small hills and some steps. Nice water fountain area. Also grassy areas with benches. Will definitelt go back again.
Very pretty and generally clean and well kept. It was surprisingly crowded on a week day afternoon, so maybe not the best place to stroll if youre trying to social distance.

2022-06-29Beautiful park! Flower beds and grass areas are always kept up very nicely. A great place to host small wedding or picnic. I brought some friends here for a picnic and it was perfect. Plenty of trees for shade on hot days, as well as open picnic bunches. Would highly suggest walk, photo shoot, or picnic.

2022-05-24Obviously very seasonal, however there were several photographers and families taking in the sights and smells of all the beautiful flowers on our visit. Try to visit around the time tulips are blooming. Absolutely gorgeous!
Review №3
2022-05-19Lovely park filled with various species of lilacs, daffodils, and tulips. A must visit“ in early May. Can get a bit busy on the weekends, but still enjoyable.
Review №4
2022-01-15Holiday lights are wonderful! This park is great all year round, but best during the winter. It is free and easy to walk around. During busy times they do have food/hot coco. Also, it is right across from the train station so you can get there easily by rail.
Review №5
2022-04-22Lovely local park. Daffodils blossom in April, Tulips in May, then Lilacs. When lilacs are in full bloom there are a few weeks of pay to enter. Lombard residents are always free.
Review №6
2022-05-17This is a lovely small park. In the spring you have daffodils, tulips, and then lilacs of every color. No dogs allowed, unfortunately.
Review №7

2021-12-05The Christmas lights were amazing once again. I love how this town still has that old small town feel to it. The family had such a great time. Great job to all the hard work they did putting this together.

2022-06-18Very nice park to stroll through or sit down and relax at, you can tell that the groundskeepers spend lots of time maintaining this place and that they put their heart into the artwork they create. My toddler loves coming here to make a wish at the water fountain, and theres always lots of friendly smiling people here who make this place feel warm and welcoming.
