What started in 1965 with a small gathering around a yule log has transformed into a holiday tradition for thousands each year with more than 2 million lights, 96 lighted holiday trees, and over 70 other holiday displays and lighted tunnels illuminating Zilker Park. What to expect From Dec. 8-23, visitors will walk through about 2.5 miles of lights throughout the event. The Trail of Lights Ferris Wheel and Carousel are both popular rides, and Santa Claus can be found in his house each night from 6-9:30 p.m. Food and drink vendors will be scattered throughout the trail. Additionally, visitors will have the chance to roast s’mores at designated areas along the trail and see live entertainment at the Zilker stage.
