Tampa Bay’s Festival of Lights & Santa’s Village transforms the Hillsborough County Fairgrounds into a dazzling winter wonderland from Thanksgiving Day through December 29, featuring more than 1 million lights! This year’s 2-mile drive-thru experience has expanded to include the brand-new “Santa’s Winter Woodlands,” where frolicking forest creatures add a magical touch. Returning favorites include the beloved “Under the Sea” display, where blue lights and whimsical aquatic creatures sparkle, and the Pirates of Tampa, who stand guard at the animated tunnel. You’ll encounter Florida-themed fun with alligators and airboats and more.
New this year in Santa’s Village, Keel and Curley Winery offers a selection of wine and ciders to accompany the tasty treats served throughout.

Santa’s Barnyard, camel rides, seasonal movies and holiday-themed rides promise endless fun for the entire family. Don’t miss your hometown holiday festival – the perfect gift of family fun this season!
