Christmas in Color: Drive-Thru Animated Light Show at Raging Waters

Drive through millions of lights perfectly synchronized to holiday music you’ll hear right through your radio. Drive by giant candy canes, snowmen, arched pathways and more. Take your time enjoying this lighting extravaganza – we won’t judge you if you join the kids with your face pressed against the window!

Santa’s Speedway Christmas Lights Drive Thru Spectacular at the Irwindale Speedway

The best-reviewed Christmas light show in Southern California! This year, Santa has cranked up the horsepower at his racetrack. With five new displays, double the number of lights, three full light tunnels, and our distinctive 110′ tall Christmas lights tree!

To accommodate the additional exhibits, tunnels, photo opportunities, concessions, and our all-new grand finale, a whole new track was built.

We’re also ecstatic about our new ticketing app, which will allow visitors to purchase tickets, access the gates, and even get food and snacks from our concession stand. We want your visit to be all about the lights, with everything else being simple. Our redesigned route also allowed us to improve our admission process, making it easier for you to get to the lights.
