## About

Holly Days 2026 is the Oak Lawn Park District's holiday ice show at Oak Lawn Ice Arena. The park district's own skaters take to the ice to show their skills, creativity and hard work in a program of holiday performances. The show runs for two hours on the second Saturday afternoon of December, and the park district says it is free to the public; the listing shows no tickets or registration. It pairs with the arena's Skate with Santa open skate the next afternoon for families who want to get on the ice themselves.
