“A wonderful family tradition!

This is our third year attending the light show, and our second year bringing our little girl along. Our baby is just over a year old, and it was the perfect family activity. She absolutely loved all the beautiful lights, and it was such a magical experience for all of us!

After enjoying the light displays, we visited the gift shop to meet Santa, and I have to give a huge shout-out to him! He was incredible with our daughter—so kind, patient, and genuine. He really took the time to make the experience special, and it meant the world to us. We’ve already recommended this Santa experience to friends with young children, and we will definitely be returning next year.

The whole experience was fantastic, and I highly recommend it! We went on a Wednesday during the earlier time slot, and it wasn’t crowded at all, which made it even more enjoyable. We look forward to making this a yearly tradition!”
