This show started out as something I wanted to do for a long time and the cost of it was more than most people would put into holiday decoration. However, that didn't deter me from trying to put on some great, free entertainment for our neighbors and our community. This show is completely self funded. We even raised some money for Disabled American Veterans chapter 114 right here in Livonia.
Well, I have been notified that due to the current world economic climate (tariffs) the cost of pixels will be going up 125 percent. That would push the per pixel cost from around 30 cents per pixel to about 70 to 75 cents per pixel. To put this in perspective, our show 3 years ago was 5,000 pixels. If you do the math, it's simply no longer feasible to do this show. Due to the incredible rise in cost, Busch Family Lights will not be back for at least this year, maybe longer.
Thank you to everyone that has come out in the past and enjoyed the show with your family, friends and neighbors. Hopefully this is see you later and not a goodbye.
Sincerely,
Dan Busch and family
