Three Drive-Thru Christmas Displays Will Be in the Denver Area This Season

Oct 5, 2023, 4:49 PM

For the last six Christmas seasons there’s been at least one drive-thru Christmas display in the Denver area. This year the attraction returns to three Denver suburbs!

Christmas in Color announced it will bring back its drive-through light displays at three locations in Colorado for the 2023 holiday season.

The displays will be at Water World in Federal Heights, Bandimere Speedway in Morrison, and in Aurora at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds.

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.

All three Colorado locations are scheduled to open for the holiday season on Friday, Nov. 17.

Christmas in Color has not yet announced its 2023 schedule, but in previous years the display has been open 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. through Jan. 1. All locations are traditionally closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Tickets will go on sale at a later date at ChristmasinColor.net.
