As if you needed more than just the vibrant lights themselves to inspire a visit, the Mile High Tree boasts all of your favorite holiday tunes, which play in-sync with the lights every half hour and on the hour.

In addition to Christmas songs, the tree plays traditional Hannukah and Kwanzaa tunes, both of which are also beautifully choreographed to the jaw-dropping light show.
