Walk-thru Tickets
Fantasy of Lights is 1.5 miles long ONE WAY. Walk part of the way or the entire show!
Celebrate 10 years of Walk-thru festivities as you stroll through large, animated displays in a beautiful County Park. Watch an erupting volcano at the Dinosaur Den, cheer on Santa shooting hoops, wave at a pen of playful penguins, duck blazing Pirate Cannons and saunter through tunnels of moving lights. The Fantasy of Lights Walk-thru has become a cherished holiday tradition, bigger, better and brighter than ever before thanks to environmentally friendly LED lighting. There will be food trucks and beverages brought to you by Moveable Feast and fun holiday photo opportunities! Dress warmly and wear comfortable, safe footwear. NO PETS OR BICYCLES, please. Walk-thru nights will only be cancelled with unsafe conditions.
The event takes place at Vasona Lake County Park, 333 Blossom Hill Road, Los Gatos. There is no event parking inside of Vasona Lake County Park and street parking is very limited. We encourage you to take advantage of our free parking and shuttle located at Netflix, 121 Albright Way, Los Gatos. Guests will then be shuttled over to the event entrance and shuttled back to the parking lot. Shuttles will be running the entirety of the event.
Upon arriving at Netflix, you will be required to redeem your tickets to board the shuttles. For those walking in, tickets can be redeemed at the front entrance of the park. Please respect our neighbors and refrain from blocking driveways and business lots.
