As every year, the Illuminated Water Features attracted thousands of visitors to the mountain park. Organizer: Kassel Marketing GmbH. The supplementary BergparkLeuchten festival still took place in 2025 – it was cancelled for 2026 due to savings.

The proven format has shaped the festival for years and brings audiences from the region as well as from neighbouring federal states to the location. The annual edition contributes to Hesse's fixed festival calendar and is supported voluntarily by local clubs, associations, and helpers.
