Winterlights is an outdoor walking route of nearly two million lights through The Garden at Newfields on an accessible path; most visitors spend about 90 minutes, and the first floor of the decorated Lilly House is included. Strollers, small wagons and wheelchairs are allowed on the path, though strollers are parked outside Lilly House. Kids five and under are free, the event runs rain or shine, and advance timed tickets are required. Free parking is at the Michigan Road entrance. ## Similar picks in Indianapolis - [Visit with Santa at The Children's Museum](https://grassyknees.com/indianapolis/activities/visit-with-santa-at-the-children-s-museum--listing-970b43fda837a08bc9a4a847) — Sat, Nov 21 (+23 more dates) · The Children's Museum of Indianapolis · All ages · With admission · checked Oct 24.
