Fantasy of Lights Drive-Thru 2024

First presented in 1999, Fantasy of Lights is a spectacular 1.5 mile Drive-Thru extravaganza of holiday lights and displays for the entire family. It is now in its 26th year and has become a cherished holiday tradition. It is bigger, better and brighter than ever before thanks to the transition to environmentally friendly LED displays.

The Drive-Thru runs from December 10th - January 5th, and is closed on December 25th, 31st, and January 1st. Tickets for specific time slots (30-minute windows between 6:00pm – 9:30pm) are required for entry. YOU MUST PURCHASE A TICKET ONLINE BEFORE ARRIVAL, as no tickets will be sold at the park entrance. Each ticket sold is PER VEHICLE, and not per person.

NEW THIS YEAR: While two (2) Holiday Spec - 3D Glasses have always been included in your Drive-thru ticket order, this year, you can add additional glasses for $5 per pair.
