The Oklahoma Christmas Lights Display That’s Been Named Among The Most Beautiful In The World

It's hard to believe Oklahoma is home to one of the best Christmas light displays in the nation and one of the most beautiful in the world - but it's true! The Chickasha Festival of Lights has won numerous awards over the past 30+ years and every year it gets better and better. Plan a trip to this nationally-recognized Christmas display that's sure to get you in the holiday spirit. If you're hunting for the best spots to see Christmas lights in Oklahoma this year, this one is one of the VERY best.

Chickasha’s Festival of Light in Oklahoma has been lighting up the 43-acre Shannon Springs Park since 1993.

The production rivals lights you would see in showbiz cities such as Branson and Las Vegas, making it one of the most beautiful in the world.

The Festival of Light features over 3.5 million lights and draws in more than 250,000 visitors from around the world every year.

The centerpiece of the park is a 172-foot Christmas tree that stands above everything else.

It's truly a sight to see!

There are more than four miles of lighted walkways for visitors to stroll.

Or, you can drive through the park in the comfort of your own vehicle.

For an extra special experience, take a carriage ride (kids three and under are free).

There are more than 100 festive light scenes, animated light displays, and synchronized light and music shows.

But that's not all!

There's also a carousel, Ferris wheel, food truck park, and even an ice skating rink!

Plus, there's a spectacular bridge decorated with thousands and thousands of lights.

You can walk over it while the echoes of Christmas jazz up the sights and sounds of the holiday spirit.

Come hungry and eat at one of several food trucks on-site.

Or choose from several vendors selling popcorn, hot chocolate, coffee, and holiday treats.
