Lighting Up a Local Landmark: QC Lights Brings Holiday Magic to the John Deere Pavilion
The John Deere Pavilion is one of the Quad Cities’ most iconic attractions — a place where innovation, agriculture, and Midwest pride come together under one roof. And this holiday season, QC Lights was proud to illuminate the Pavilion with a custom-designed holiday lighting display that mixes warm tradition with modern LED precision.
Whether you’ve visited the Pavilion with family, explored its interactive exhibits, or simply driven by during the holidays, it’s hard to miss the glow that brings the building to life. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how QC Lights helped make that magic happen.
What Makes the John Deere Pavilion Special?
Sitting in downtown Moline, IL since 1997, the John Deere Pavilion has become a signature attraction for families across Iowa and Illinois. It’s home to:
Full-size tractors and combines you can climb inside
Hands-on interactive exhibits
Live demonstrations
Seasonal attractions and community events
It’s a true celebration of Midwest agriculture, and during the holidays, it becomes a perfect backdrop for festive lighting.

Bringing Holiday Glow to a Landmark
QC Lights partnered with the Pavilion to create a holiday lighting design that highlights its architecture while honoring the iconic John Deere brand. We used a blend of warm whites and signature John Deere greens and yellows to bring out the building’s character, without overpowering its natural modern look.
Our HOLIDAY lighting setup included:
Professional-grade LED holiday lighting
Custom color-matched accents
Commercial-strength lighting components
Weather-rated equipment built for Midwest winters
Programmable zones for show-style lighting effects
Everything is built to withstand rain, ice, wind, and below-freezing temperatures — because if it can survive an Illinois winter, it can survive anything.

Why This Install Matters to the Quad Cities
Lighting the John Deere Pavilion isn’t just about brightening a building — it’s about bringing people together.
Every year, families gather outside the Pavilion for photos, visitors stop to admire the glow, and the area becomes a warm, welcoming spot during the coldest months of the year. It adds to the holiday spirit of downtown Moline and enhances the experience for everyone passing through.
For QC Lights, it’s more than a project. It’s community pride.
