Where Do You Find Christmas Lights in Las Vegas?
With Las Vegas being lit up like a Christmas tree 24/7, not as many people put up their own lights out here. It’s kind of disappointing to not be able to just drive around the neighborhood and enjoy everyone’s lights. When I was kid, we always had to take a drive down “Candy Cane Lane.” But Vegas still has some pretty good options besides just heading down to The Strip.
Winter Lights Festival at Springs Preserve- A half million lights, along with roaming performance groups, carriage rides, Santa Claus and Theater Las Vegas’ original puppet show “Dickens Done Over.” Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for children ages 5 to 17 and it’s open until December 30th.
Magical Forest at Opportunity Village - See my last post with all the details.
Gift of Lights at Sunset Park - You drive through the park and veiw over 200 light displays, some are even animated. This is probably one of the best displays in town. Admission is $13 per car but you can get $2 discount if you bring a bag of items for Goodwill. It’s open until January 4th.
Chocolate Wonderland at Ethel M Chocolate Factory- Almost 500,000 lights in the three-acre cactus garden . The good news is admission is free for this one. Also, during the day you can take a tour of factory and enjoy some free samples, mmmm!
The lights will be up in the garden until January 1st.
