A Christmas Lights Maze Is Coming To Washington D.C. And It Looks As Magical As It Sounds
It’s rare that we ever cover something that’s technically outside of Virginia, yet the event we’re about to introduce is well worth your travel. If you can brave the city traffic in Washington D.C., then you’ll be rewarded with one of the most unique holiday events in the region: Enchant Christmas Lights Maze. This illuminated maze is a traveling event that only arrives in a handful of locations in the U.S., so we’re thrilled that one of the stops isn’t very far from the Old Dominion. Here’s more on this Christmas Lights Maze that you’ll want to experience for yourself.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing.

Enchant Christmas is a spectacular lights maze and holiday market that will be making its way to Washington D.C. from November 22nd to December 29th at the Nationals Park.
The largest of its kind in the whole world, this illuminated maze will captivate you from the moment you arrive. Your mission is to help Santa find all of his reindeer.
Of course, exploring and getting lost inside this 90,000 square foot maze is half the fun. You'll love the theatrical effects of twinkling lights, music, and even gentle snow falling from above.
In addition to the maze, there's also an ice skating trail for visitors to enjoy. You can rent skates at the event or bring your own to wear along this delightful frozen pathway.
The on-site Christmas Market is a wonderful way to engage with local vendors from Virginia, D.C., and beyond. You'll browse handmade gifts and other items for sale. Plus, there will be food and drink vendors to fuel all of your adventures. Even Saint Nick will be there!
No matter your reason for venturing to D.C. to experience Enchant Christmas, you are sure to leave with a newfound sense of holiday cheer. Remember to bring your camera!
