Magic of Lights Drive-Thru Returns to This Texas City

Hold onto your hot cocoa, El Paso! 

The Magic of Lights holiday drive-thru is back, and this year, it's lighting up a brand-new spot—Wet N’ Wild Waterworld! Starting November 22, get ready for a festive adventure that’ll shine bright until January 4. 

For the past few years, the Magic of Lights Drive Thru experience has set up shop in El Paso’s northeast at Cohen Stadium, however this year Wet N’ Wild will transform into a winter wonderland, featuring jaw-dropping displays and dazzling digital animations made with millions of LED lights. Families can drive through the holiday magic, staying cozy in their cars as they soak up all the sparkly sights.

Family and Pet Friendly

Last year I went to enjoy the drive-thru experience with my teenage son and a few of our favorite four legged pups. They all enjoyed the lights so it’s safe to say that this drive-thru experience is a great memory to share with people of all ages, and pets of all sizes! (Well, dogs at least.)

What To Expect

If you have never been to one of these drive-thru experiences expect to see fan-favorite scenes like Prehistoric Christmas, Toyland, the 12 Days of Christmas, and Reindeer Road, plus a show-stopping 200-foot Tunnel of Lights. New surprises, like a 32-foot animated Waving Christmas Barbie and life-sized dinos celebrating the season, will keep the whole fam entertained.

Event date and time details:

The event runs Monday–Thursday from 5:30 pm - 9:00 pm and Friday–Sunday until 10 pm. Tickets go on sale October 8, priced per vehicle, so snag yours early.
