Phoenix Gets Lit!
‘Tis the season for festive holiday lighting displays! While we may not get much snow here in the Valley of the Sun, we certainly know how to make the desert come alive at night and we’ve rounded up our list of favorites in Phoenix:
- Illumination: Symphony of Light: Illumination is Arizona’s largest holiday drive-thru light show that is fully synchronized to your favorite music. This 1-mile long driving attraction will feature millions of holiday lights synchronized to holiday music throughout 14 acres of the newest state of the art holiday lights and displays. With a location in Tempe and North Phoenix, there is sure to be something for everyone.
- Phoenix Zoo Lights: When the animals go to bed, the humans will play! Phoenix Zoo lights are a Phoenix staple, with elaborate light displays throughout the zoo. While it is rare to spot an animal during zoo lights, you never know who might stay awake to party with the humans.
