"So Long, Springfield” is a daylong farewell to the beloved and longest running television show of all time, Guiding Light. While adoring fans are tearful that the longest running show in history has been cancelled, the “LIGHT” is not completely extinguished. Although the last episode was aired in September, the show won’t go dark without appropriate fanfare—very much due this beloved soap opera and it’s cherished characters.
"So Long, Springfield” is a once in a lifetime event, featuring ten of Guiding Light’s most popular stars. Fans will enjoy memorable, up-close-and-personal time with the stars, and have a last opportunity to say goodbye and send good wishes to the real people that portray the characters they’ve come to know and love.
