Fantasy in Lights is a dazzling light and sound spectacle that has been a cherished Christmas tradition for over 30 years. Inspired by Virginia Callaway's love of Christmas lights, it began as a simple drive-through experience in 1992 with just five lighted scenes. Today, it features 18 scenes, including two at Robin Lake Beach, many of which are animated and set to music. With more than 10 million lights, enough to cover over 26,000 Christmas trees or stretch 731 miles, the display has grown into one of the largest holiday light shows in the world. The drive-through experience spans approximately seven miles and takes at least 45 minutes to complete.
No! There is also a walkthrough experience, the Callaway Christmas Village. Walk through a forest of twinkling lights, gigantic snowflakes and larger-than-life ornaments enchant your whole family. Stroll through a forest of picture-perfect trees on Christmas Tree Lane and stop for hot chocolate, seasonal shopping, and meet and greets with Santa at the Christmas Market!
