About this adventure

World of Illumination brings its vibrant 'Candy Rush' animated drive-through light theme park to Camelback Ranch in Glendale/West Phoenix. Families experience millions of synchronized LED lights dancing across life-sized candy canes, giant lollipops, a towering gingerbread village, and a mesmerizing kaleidoscopic light vortex tunnel, all synced to holiday pop hits and classic carols via car radio. The entire 25-minute journey can be enjoyed from inside the warm family vehicle, making it an ideal outing for babies, toddlers, and grandparents alike. Guests are encouraged to bring thermoses of hot cocoa and holiday cookies for the drive. Tickets are sold per carload rather than per person and must be booked online in advance.
