About this adventure
The City of O'Fallon's Celebration of Lights transforms historic Fort Zumwalt Park into a radiant winter holiday wonderland with hundreds of animated light displays, sparkling tunnels, and scenes depicting holiday traditions. Operating since 1991, the event offers traditional drive-through evenings, magical horse-drawn carriage rides, tractor-pulled hayrides, the Holiday Train, and dedicated pedestrian walk-through nights where families can wander the glowing one-mile paved loop at their own pace. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller & Wagon Friendly: Paved park roads make the dedicated Tuesday walking nights effortless for strollers, wagons, and wheelchairs. • In-Car Option: Drive-through nights (Wednesdays through Sundays) provide complete warmth for young children. • Restrooms & Warming: Heated restrooms and warming facilities are located at the main park pavilion near the entrance. • Age Suitability: Delightful for infants up to grandparents; advance reservations recommended for specialty rides.
