## About

Now celebrating more than three decades of holiday tradition, the Midwest City Holiday Lights Spectacular illuminates Joe B. Barnes Regional Park with more than one million twinkling lights and over 100 animated figures. Families embark on a 1.5-mile drive-through route starting at SE 15th Street and Century Boulevard, winding through towering trees, sparkling bridges, and festive holiday tableaux. The centerpiece of the entire show is a monumental 118-foot lighted Christmas tree adorned with thousands of dancing LED bulbs. Drivers can tune their car radios to the park's synchronized holiday music broadcast on 93.5 FM, watching candy cane forests, leaping deer, and animated snowmen groove in time to holiday favorites.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: This is primarily a vehicular drive-through display, making it fully weatherproof and accessible for families with infants, strollers, or sleeping toddlers.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Portable and heated park restrooms are located near the park entrance; vehicles provide a private, warm space for nursing mothers.
• Age Suitability: Suitable for all ages; grandparents, toddlers, and teenagers all enjoy the ease and comfort of the warm car tour.
• Sensory Tips: Synchronized light sequences can be viewed with car radio volume turned low or off, allowing families complete control over sensory intensity.
