Nothing says holidays in Kansas City more than the Plaza. Though we sometimes feel like the lights are just a common occurrence, we still catch ourselves staring every year.
The annual lighting of this tree is a city wide event, but even if you miss it you should still stop by and witness the 100-foot tree in all its glory.
This amazing 15-minute show is one for the family. Lights synced with live music isn't something you find often, and the magical combination is best viewed right here in Liberty. It really is an amazing show, and not one you'll find anywhere else.
The crown-themed lights at Zona Rosa are a special break from the normal snowflakes and stars you see everywhere else. The square is filled with holiday cheer to help complete your road trip's goal: more lights!
Every year, Legends displays this gorgeous 45-foot tree that towers over the square. It's just gorgeous, and the perfect backdrop for photos.
This classic display of animated lights really brings out the holiday spirit, and is another great addition to this list. There are giant trees and twinkling lights, galore!
Catch the amazing lights here at the farm, where you can take a break for a while and enjoy the ever-shifting display on the barn.
Another light show? Another light show! These never get old, most likely because there's a million and one ways to set them up. As far as the KC area goes, this is one of the best.
Of course, you can't go look at holiday lights without seeing The Magic Tree. It's here every year, and the magic surrounding it extends much farther than the light.
This amazing display is worth every minute spent outside your warm home, and is a great way to round out your road trip. Tip: head here on weeknights to make the wait shorter!

After all of these amazing events, the only thing left to do is check out even more winter fun this year!
