This holiday season, Lubbock Light Park offers a truly unique experience, combining dazzling lights, festive music, and holiday cheer. Located in the South Plains Mall parking lot, it’s the only drive-through light park in the South Panhandle of Texas, setting itself apart as a must-see attraction for families and friends.
Founder Zach Maldonado envisioned creating something special for the Lubbock community—an immersive experience that grows bigger and better with each passing year. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by the glow of hundreds of thousands of sparkling lights illuminating a carefully crafted pathway. Every twist and turn reveals intricate displays, creating a festive wonderland designed to captivate visitors of all ages.
“This show is something Lubbock has never seen before,” Maldonado says. “There are over 225,000 lights and millions of colors all synchronized together. There are animated trees, gingerbread men, and giant lights singing to you with the music.”
What makes Lubbock Light Park especially memorable is the seamless synchronization of its light displays with a six-song playlist of beloved Christmas music, broadcast directly to your car’s radio. As the music plays, the lights dance in time, filling your car with a cheerful holiday soundtrack that elevates the magic. Each song is paired with unique visual elements, turning the journey into an unforgettable celebration of the season.
Adding to the enchantment are larger-than-life inflatables, including Santa Claus waving from his sleigh, Rudolph with his iconic glowing red nose, and other whimsical holiday icons. These towering figures bring a sense of wonder and excitement, especially for children, as they marvel at the cheerful characters lining the glowing route.
The park’s attention to detail shines through in every element, from glittering trees wrapped in twinkling lights to sparkling arches that create tunnels of illumination. Snowflakes, ornaments, and other festive designs add to the charm, ensuring there’s always something new to discover.
Unlike similar attractions across the Lone Star State, Lubbock Light Park offers flexibility for visitors. Tickets are $30 per vehicle, and you don’t need to reserve a specific time slot—simply arrive when it’s convenient for you and enjoy the magic at your own pace.
Maldonado has big dreams for the park, intending to make it even more spectacular every year forward. This year’s debut is just the beginning, as he works to bring more lights, music, and holiday magic to the South Plains community for years to come.
“Our hope for the show is for you and your family to create unforgettable memories,” the founder adds. We hope that every person that experiences the show will experience the joy of Christmas!”
Whether you’re sharing the experience with loved ones or soaking in the holiday spirit on your own, Lubbock Light Park promises to brighten your season. Don’t miss your chance to drive through this incredible light show and create lasting memories at a new Lubbock tradition.
