Tips & Advice
- Take I-15 Exit 54 to Speedway Blvd, because GPS can send you to a closed gate.
- Use the speedway restrooms near the entry before you start, because there are none inside the light show.
- Buy Santa Tram tickets online early, because they can sell out on peak holiday evenings, while drive-through entry never does.
- Go early in the evening Sunday through Thursday for the smoothest ride through the lights.
- Bundle up if anyone is riding in a truck bed or trailer, because it gets colder than you'd expect.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many people can we fit in one vehicle?
There's no limit, because tickets are per vehicle. People often bring vans, SUVs, truck beds or trailers, and there's a staging area near the entrance where you can load everyone up.
What is the Santa Tram?
It's an open-air tram ride with games and selfies with Santa, and photos with Santa are free. It follows the same route as the drive-through, so you see all the lights. Tickets are per person, tied to a date and time, and sold for select nights.
How long does the drive take?
Most people spend 30 to 45 minutes on the 3-mile route.
Is there food?
Yes. The Cocoa Chalet presented by Chick-fil-A is at the entrance every night, with cocoa, apple cider, kettle corn and other treats. Local Scouts run it, and the proceeds support their troops.
Are there restrooms?
A few speedway restrooms are open near the entry, but there are none inside the light show.
