Through its 2025 Community Tickets Program, City Park Conservancy was proud to partner with local nonprofits to provide complimentary admission to Celebration in the Oaks for organizations serving youth, seniors, military families, and other members of our community. The program was generously underwritten by Ochsner Children’s, ranked the #1 hospital for kids in Louisiana by U.S. News & World Report.

The request period closed on November 20, and ticket fulfillment began on November 21. We are grateful to the many nonprofit partners who participated and helped make this beloved holiday tradition accessible to communities across our region.

Celebration in the Oaks runs from November 28 through January 1, 2026, welcoming guests to experience the two-mile Driving Tour or Walking Tour, featuring dazzling light displays, unlimited Amusement Park rides, the Ochsner Children’s Holiday Express train, and access to the New Orleans Botanical Garden.

Community tickets may not be sold, raffled, or used for fundraising purposes.
