SUMMARY:Magical Nights of Lights - Lanier Islands
DESCRIPTION:Bigger and brighter\, Magical Nights of Lights at Lanier Islands Resort promises More Lights\, More Magic\, and More Memories this holiday season. Priced by the vehicle\, this modern-day sleigh ride through mile after mile of sparkling lights and animated displays runs nightly from 5-10PM November 20\, 2026 to January 3\, 2027. As the cabin of each vehicle fills with holiday music and wonder\, all roads lead to the resort’s Holiday Headquarters at Game Changer – which marks another year of Clark’s Holiday Pop-up Bar in addition to a Vendor Village and all the fun and games to be found at the 23\,000-square-foot indoor playground. Give Back Nights with gifts for the first 100 cards\, appearances from the Jolly Old Elf himself and other holiday characters on select nights\, and stops to the winter wonderland at Margaritaville’s License to Chill Snow Island will further enhance the experience. Visitors can race down Georgia’s longest snow tubing hill\, skate to holiday tunes\, hop on exciting carnival rides\, or dive into fresh snow blown daily for playtime and snowball battles. \nMagical Nights of Lights has all the makings for a special date night\, a cherished tradition for groups of friends\, or an evening of memory-making for the whole family. It earned the top spot among Favorite Homegrown Holiday Light Displays from North Georgia Living Magazine\, and Mommy Poppins named Magical Nights of Lights one of the Best Holiday Light Shows in Atlanta last year. Discover why Magical Nights of Lights has been a beloved holiday tradition among countless families and individuals since 1993.
