Looking to add some festive cheer to your holiday season? The drive-through holiday light display Magic of Lights will return to the Empire Polo Club this winter!
Inside the comfort of their own vehicle, guests will enjoy Magic of Lights’ classic holiday favorites including Winter Wonderland, the 12 Days of Christmas, Toyland, festive Elves and Reindeer Road. In addition to the 200 foot long Enchanting Tunnel of Lights, there will also be other new light tunnels to delight and amaze.  Other illuminated displays include the 32-foot-tall animated Mattel’s Waving Christmas Barbie®, Prehistoric Christmas featuring life sized dinosaurs celebrating the season, and the legendary BIGFOOT® Monster Truck. Created with over two million sparkling lights, Magic of Lights is a nostalgic and festive event everyone will enjoy.
Guests can also stop inside the Jolly Holiday Village, which allows visitors to walk through a magical out-of-car area featuring Santa and Mrs. Claus Monday-Wednesday, letter writing stations and other holiday activities along with singing trees, leaping arches, snowflakes and candy canes all synced to music.
