The park bills its light display as the largest in Texas, with millions of lights, a walk-through Tunnel of Lights and themed holiday zones. Families can watch the animal-narrated Nativity show O Wondrous Night with more than 30 carols, hear Rudolph's Misfit Brass Band, meet Rudolph and friends, and take photos with a cowboy-hat-wearing Texas Santa presented by the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo. Holiday food stalls and a Christmas market run alongside the usual rides and animal habitats. The page says the celebration starts at 1 p.m. on select days, so check the park-hours calendar for the days you want and plan an evening visit to see the lights; shows are included with park admission, while dinner with Santa is an extra upgrade. ## Similar picks in San Antonio - [The Light Park San Antonio drive-thru holiday lights](https://grassyknees.com/san-antonio/activities/the-light-park-san-antonio-drive-thru-holiday-lights--listing-8aa6ef9714c725b148f7da44) — Nov 6 – Jan 3 · 5:30 PM – 10:00 PM · The Light Park at Nelson W.
