6 Drive-Thru Christmas Lights Displays In West Virginia The Whole Family Can Enjoy

Arguably one of the best ways to enjoy the days leading up to Christmas is by cruising through an entire attraction of drive-thru Christmas lights in West Virginia. In fact, the only thing better (that we can think of)? Attending 6 of them!

1. Oglebay Festival Of Lights (Wheeling)

Enjoy six miles of lights on this festive drive-through that has been named one of the top 14 holiday drive-through light experiences in the U.S.! Oglebay's Festival of Lights runs from early November through mid-January. There is a suggested donation per vehicle rather than an admission price, which qualifies you for a season pass to the festival as well as over $500 worth of coupons for other events and services at Oglebay.
