Texas’ Enchanting Trail Of Lights Holiday Drive-Thru Is Sure To Delight
Austin’s annual Trail of Lights is a beloved holiday tradition among Central Texas families, and it’s back for yet another season of Christmas magic. The event is drive-thru only this year, but the same two million lights and festive displays we all know and love will be present as ever.
For the 56th year in a row, Austin's beloved Trail of Lights will return for another enchanting holiday season.
Things will look a little different this time around, as the event is drive-thru only, but the holiday magic we all know and love won't be going anywhere.
Several lighted tunnels illuminate the darkness, and—as with snowflakes—no two are exactly alike. There's enchantment around every corner, and the element of surprise only adds to it.
Kids from one to 92 will get a glimmer in their eye as the whimsical winter wonderland unfolds all around. For added wonderment, tune into Trail of Lights Radio and listen to classic holiday songs.
Choose between General Admission and a Dash Pass, the latter including a festive goodie bag and early access to the trail from 5:45 p.m. until 7 p.m. (gates open to the public at 7). Dash Passes are $60 per vehicle.
For general admission, you'll need to select a time slot. Available times are 7 p.m., 8 p.m., 9 p.m., and 9:45 p.m. on select nights only. Tickets range from $25-$35 depending on which slot and particular date you choose.
