About this adventure

WonderLight's Christmas in Ohio transforms the historic Hartford Fairgrounds in Croton into a colossal drive-through wonderland boasting over one million brilliant LED lights choreographed to holiday music. Passengers stay warm inside their own cars while driving along a two-mile illuminated path featuring giant floating shooting stars, 300-foot light tunnels, dancing candy canes, and towering 50-foot Christmas trees that flash in rhythm with beloved holiday tunes. By tuning into the synchronized FM radio station, families experience a multi-sensory symphony of festive melodies and synchronized visual effects. It is a favored holiday excursion for Central Ohio families looking for a cheerful evening drive through rural winter scenery and spectacular holiday illumination. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Enjoyed completely from inside your vehicle; open-bed pickup trucks with blankets are also permitted. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Portable family restrooms and diaper changing amenities are stationed at the main fairgrounds entrance gate. • Age Suitability: Marvelous for all age groups, especially sleeping infants, energetic toddlers, and seniors. • Sensory Tips: Brilliant flashing and pulsating lights synchronized to car radio music; drivers can easily adjust the radio volume or dim dashboard lights for comfort.
