LUMENAURA is the City of Aurora’s unique annual experience that transforms downtown Aurora into a glowing wonderland of immersive light and sound. Stroll through mesmerizing art displays, interact with artistic soundscapes, and enjoy a magical, family-friendly adventure—completely free! Don’t just see the lights—step into them!
At LUMENAURA, we believe in creating a sensory-rich experience that everyone can enjoy, especially individuals with developmental disabilities, who often thrive in environments that engage in light and sound. Our interactive displays encourage movement, exploration, and self-expression, while accessible pathways and powerful displays without loud music ensure a welcoming space for all. By blending art, music, and light, LUMENAURA offers a joyful, inclusive experience where everyone can connect and celebrate creativity in their own way.
