Over the last handful of years a drive-through Christmas lights display has gotten so popular that it’s expanding to three Denver-area locations this holiday season.

Christmas in Color  will be back at Water World in Federal Heights and in Aurora at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. There will also be a new location this year at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, replacing a display that had been at Bandimere Speedway.

The Water World and Arapahoe County Fairgrounds are scheduled to open for the holiday season on Friday, Nov. 15. The Red Rocks Ampitheatre location opens Friday, Nov. 29.

The displays each feature more than one million LED lights arranged into tunnels, trees, giant candy canes, snowflakes and more, all synchronized to festive holiday music on the FM radio dial.

Christmas in Color is open 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. through Sunday, Dec. 29. All locations are traditionally closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Tickets are on sale at ChristmasinColor.net.
