The Unique Holiday Adventure In Nevada That Pairs A Chocolate Factory With Over A Million Lights

You might consider this one an odd pairing: a delectable chocolate factory and over a million holiday lights strewn throughout a famous cactus garden. Doesn't have the same ring to it as say, peanut butter + jelly, right? But yet, once you take a trip to Ethel M's 24th Annual Holiday Cactus Garden & Chocolate Factory, you'll be in for quite a treat this December.

For the past 23 years, Ethel M’s Chocolate Factory has been delighting people with their annual holiday celebration.

While some guests visit throughout the year for the delicious chocolate goodies and the stunning botanical cactus garden…

…it’s the holiday tradition that keeps people coming back every year.

Featuring over 1 million holiday lights—that’s right we said 1 million—visitors can enjoy this free and public spectacular until January 1, 2018.

Once the sun sets, the garden will become illuminated in entirety and stay that way until 10pm.

There will also be chocolate treats to look forward to as well, including a rich, creamy hot chocolate like you’ve never experienced before.

There is even a skating rink open daily from 10am – 10pm for $10-$20 per person!

You do not want to miss this one-of-a-kind chocolate adventure that will satisfy both your sweet tooth and your holiday spirit simultaneously.

Make sure to visit on weekends in particular, especially if you’d like to see the big man himself—Santa Claus!

This wonderful wonderland of chocolate and festivities is a perfect wintertime adventure for the whole family.
