A holiday-season tradition is returning for a 7th year at three Colorado locations, including a new location at Red Rocks Park.
AURORA, Colo. — Denver’s biggest drive-through Christmas light displays are returning this holiday season.
Christmas in Color announced it will bring back its drive-through light displays at three locations in Colorado for the 2024 holiday season.
The displays will be lit at Water World in Federal Heights and in Aurora at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. There will also be a new location this year at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, replacing a display that had been at Bandimere Speedway.
The Water World and Arapahoe County Fairgrounds are scheduled to open for the holiday season on Friday, Nov. 15. The Red Rocks Ampitheatre location opens Friday, Nov. 29.
The displays each feature more than one million LED lights arranged into tunnels, trees, giant candy canes, snowflakes and more, all synchronized to festive holiday music on the FM radio dial.
Christmas in Color is open 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. through Sunday, Dec. 29. All locations are traditionally closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Organizers estimate it takes visitors about 30 minutes to weave their way slowly through each display. Guests will also get a pair of 3D glasses to wear during the experience. Only one ticket is needed per vehicle.
Tickets are on sale at ChristmasinColor.net.
The display first set up at Water World Colorado in 2018 and a second display opened at Morrison’s Bandimere Speedway in 2019. A display at Aurora’s Arapahoe County Fairgrounds was added in 2022.
