Adventist Bolingbrook Hospital is the premiere sponsor of The Promenade’s 2012 Symphony in Lights Show.  Since 2008 the show has been famed as The largest commercial holiday light show of its kind in Chicagoland – “Symphony in Lights” features more than 250,000 highly efficient LED lights embedded in thousands of feet of holiday foliage and choreographed to the music of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.  The show is created with 1,100 channels of computer programming and 60 computers.  The three-song program takes approximately 54,000 clicks on a computer mouse and requires approximately 50 miles of wire to run the electricity.
