1st Annual Holiday Light Fest is Back Dec 17th – December 20th

If you were totally bummed that you missed out on the 1st Annual Holiday Light Fest at State Fair Park, good news! It's just been announced that the light fest will be back for four more days for your viewing pleasure.

December 17th through December 20th you can stay in the warmth of your vehicle and experience the most beautiful light displays put together by our local community.

The drive-thru experience featured 12 festive and fun holiday-themed scenes, nearly 20 miles of lights illuminating buildings and trees. Some of the themed scenes include Candyland with a festive gingerbread house, the North Pole with two of Santa’s reindeer – Dasher and Comet, a mailbox for letters to Santa, and the big man himself!

To enter the event, turn North on 18th Street from Nob Hill Blvd and enter at Gate 15, which is located on Pacific Ave (by the Yakima County Baseball Stadium). Gates will open at 4:30 pm with the drive-thru hours from 5 pm – 9 pm each night. Admission is $10 per vehicle and $20 for limos and buses. Honestly, the earlier you arrive the better but just be prepared to wait. It's totally worth it.

A portion of the gate admission from the previous nights was donated to local non-profits.

 Wags to Riches and Yakima Humane Society; checks will be presented to each organization for $1,739 and the Salvation Army collected 177 toys, and a check for $1,902 will be presented.
