Winter Light Spectacular back at Lehigh Valley Zoo starting Nov. 13
Lehigh Valley Zoo and Christmas Décor will host the seventh annual Winter Light Spectacular presented by Service Electric TV & Communications, for 35 dates this season, Nov. 13 through Jan. 2, 2021.
Tickets are on sale now at winterlightspectacular.com.
The Winter Light Spectacular is the zoo’s largest annual fundraiser.
In addition to 1.2 million lights – a total more than any other Pennsylvania attraction – Winter Light Spectacular features a pair of reindeer, classic holiday scenes, family photo opportunities, multiple fire pits, hot chocolate and many other holiday delights.
There will also be live performances every night featuring princesses Anna and Elsa, Belle and Cinderella.
Revenue from the event supports animal conservation projects and programs at the zoo.
New for 2020 is a timed-ticketing system set for two-hour visits – part of the zoo’s new safety protocol to comply with state-mandated capacity restrictions.
This component will also benefit the guest experience by greatly improving traffic flow into the zoo, as well as enhancing parking availability.
Masks are required at all times while inside the zoo, unless at designated food and beverage areas.
The event will kickoff with T-Mobile Opening Weekend, when all regular adult tickets for Nov. 13-15 will be discounted when purchased in advance with the discount code T-MOBILE.
Hours of operations for Winter Light Spectacular are 6-10 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, as well as Nov. 25 and Dec. 23, and 5-10 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
There will also be two bonus dates the week of Christmas, scheduled for 5-10 p.m. Dec. 21 and 22.
The event will break on all other Mondays and Tuesdays, as well as on Thanksgiving (Nov. 26), Christmas Eve (Dec. 24), Christmas Day (Dec. 25) and New Year’s Eve (Dec. 31).
There is a cost per ticket for adults, children ages 2-11 and LV Zoo members, prior to online processing fees.
Young children ages 0-1 are free and there is no fee for parking.
A special rate for group outings of 20-plus people is available for advanced purchase with two additional complimentary tickets per every 20 tickets purchased.
In addition, a corporate rate is available for the advanced purchase of 100 plus anytime tickets.
