The pole would enable a user to conveniently and attractively illuminate a flag at night so that the flag does not need to be lowered at night, such as is a United States custom. In one embodiment, the pole comprises of a clear or opaque plastic flagpole which houses lights that are powered by solar energy.

The claimed subject matter can be utilized by a plurality of people. For example, homeowners, commercial, or governmental establishments would benefit from the flagpole. More people may be encouraged to display a flag and show their patriotism because of the added convenience the claimed subject matter offers.
