Lake Jackson is known for its vibrant festivities kicking off the holiday season. Every year, in mid-November, Lake Jackson holds the Festival of Lights and the Annual Parade of Lights. The tradition, which has been going strong in Brazoria County for over 30 years, attracts many visitors to Lake Jackson.
