Tips & Advice

  • Consider visiting on a weekday evening to avoid the largest crowds, especially if you want more time with Santa.
  • Check the 'Dinner & Show' page for special spaghetti dinner events, which may require separate booking or have specific dates.
  • Dress warmly and wear comfortable shoes, as you'll be walking through the light displays and potentially waiting in lines for rides.
  • Take advantage of the included parking and consider arriving a bit early to get settled before the lights begin their synchronized show.
  • The Sensory Friendly Night on December 17th offers a calmer experience for those with sensory sensitivities, with reduced lights and sounds.
