These popular and ever expanding events are a meaningful and fun tradition for members and community alike celebrating Thomas Edison and his contributions to the Fort Myers community as a winter resident. These events take place and experience great success due to the generous efforts of Edison Pageant of Light members, committees, and the Pageant's community supporters. This is in direct correlation to The Edison Festival of Light which takes place for the month February every year. A court is selected of outstanding young men and women from the Fort Myers area every year since 1938. A king and queen is then chosen and crowned King and Queen of Edisonia at the coronation ball.
