Walk Thru Light Show
My favorite part of the unique winter attraction is the walk-thru light show. Guests travel through immersive-themed displays throughout the baseball field.
The huge light display is way larger than it appears at first glance once you begin walking the one-way path.
Guests can enjoy walking through the expansive sparkling scene as many times as they want during their visit.
