The Drive-Thru Christmas Lights Display In Montana The Whole Family Can Enjoy

The most wonderful time of the year is right around the corner. From our Christmas tree lightings and parades to our beloved holiday markets, Montanans have a lot to look forward to this season. Of course, nothing really ever tops ZooLights, the annual illuminated affair at ZooMontana in Billings. And since the chill in the air is only getting colder, it helps to know you can drive right through the displays while staying warm in your car.

ZooLights has become the holiday tradition that everyone in Billings (and beyond) looks forward to each year.

ZooMontana hosts the display, which typically lasts through the entire month of December.
This year, the event officially kicks off on December 1, although zoo members can attend a sneak preview the night before at 6 p.m.

Zoo members also receive $2 off admission.
Instead of walking through the zoo and freezing, ZooLights guests are invited to drive through the zoo and check out the creative displays.

And while you cruise through, make sure to listen to the ZooRadio, which will be playing all of the holiday classics.
The cost of this fun family experience is just $10 per car, $15 per van, or $20 per bus.

Tickets can be purchased in advance on the zoo's website.
If you want to see this magnificent display by wagon, come on December 6.

There will be two wagons that seat about 16 people and are pulled by a team of working draft horses. Bring a group big enough to fill a wagon or just climb aboard with some other guests.
Depending on when you go, you may even be able to visit with Santa after ZooLights.

Santa makes a few appearances, and you'll be able to visit with him for free.
