## About

The Houston Astros turn Daikin Park downtown into a walk-through holiday light show for its second season. The illuminated path winds along the main concourse, drops down to the service level and finishes on the field itself, so families get a rare look at the ballpark from the ground while walking through Astros- and Houston-themed displays set to holiday music. On select nights, Astros Santa and the mascot Orbit are on hand for photos. Concession stands switch to holiday cookies, hot chocolate and other seasonal sweets, and the team store fills up with holiday merchandise. It is billed for all ages and is an easy outing with young children, who can see the field up close; tickets are sold for a specific night.
