Northern Lights Expands Days During Holiday Break

EVANS MILLS, NY – The Northern Lights holiday drive-thru light show Presented by the Bob Johnson Auto Group and NBC Watertown is adding operating days to their schedule during the K-12 Holiday Break this year. Starting Thursday December 19, 2024, Northern Lights will be open every night including all holidays from 5:00pm to 9:00pm.

The decision to expand was set to help offer more days to attend while students are home from school, and to make up for the difficult travel conditions present during Opening Weekend.

Northern Lights is a drive-thru holiday light show with displays spanning from eight feet tall carolers to 30 feet tall animated Christmas Trees and everything in between. The experience is great for people looking to add some holiday cheer to their busy schedule whether it’s just yourself, your family and friends, or just your pets, everyone is sure to love the light show.

On the night that you arrive, the Bob Johnson Auto Group, NBC Watertown, and other show sponsors will treat all attendees to a free second lap around Northern Lights directly after their first lap.

Local radio station Z93 (93.3.FM) will be playing the official holiday playlist of Northern Lights each night. Make sure to tune your dial to Z93 when entering the show from Steinhilber Rd. in Evans Mills, NY

A new 30 feet tall Christmas tree has been added to the patio in front of the race track with Santa Claus directly to the left of the Christmas Cottage (Box Office). Attendees are more than welcome to pull over to take a photo with the tree during their trip.

Tickets are by the carload and a single vehicle ticket is $20 which can be purchased ahead of time at www.evansmillsracewaypark.com, or at the Christmas Cottage on the night of the show with cash or card. Light-up Magic Wands are also available for $8 and are a great addition to light up the inside of your vehicle.

Attendees must enter the show through the two metal gates located on Steinhilber Rd.
