About this adventure
Uptown Altamonte comes alive during 'Light Up the Season' at Cranes Roost Park, featuring a million holiday lights and a magnificent 60-foot Christmas tree decorated with thousands of shimmering ornaments. The park's European-style waterfront plaza showcases choreographed fountain shows where water jets soar up to 70 feet in the air synchronized to holiday melodies and vibrant laser projections. Families can stroll the one-mile paved promenade encircling Cranes Roost Lake, admiring illuminated floating displays and illuminated arches. On select weekend evenings, Santa visits for photos and local children's choirs perform in the outdoor amphitheater. The wide boardwalks are flat, accessible, and completely stroller friendly.
