The Magic Returns to Cowabunga Bay

‍

If you thought last year’s Candy Rush was sweet, wait until you see what’s in store this year. Reindeer Road takes guests on a holiday journey straight to the North Pole, guided by Santa’s team of dazzling, light-filled reindeer. Each turn of the road reveals a new scene, from glowing forests and snowy tunnels to musical light displays that dance in sync with your favorite festive songs.

‍

Families can roll down their windows, sip on cocoa, and enjoy the crisp desert air as millions of twinkling lights set the stage for a night they’ll never forget. The combination of motion, music, and pure holiday magic is what makes this show stand out year after year. It’s a celebration that feels right at home in the city that never stops shining.

‍

Behind the Glow

‍

Bringing the best drive-through light show in Las Vegas to life takes creativity, teamwork, and a lot of light bulbs—millions of them, to be exact. The World of Illumination team spent months designing and programming every flicker and sparkle to sync perfectly with the show’s custom soundtrack. From the soaring arches to the glowing reindeer leading the way, every scene has been crafted with care and joy.

‍

This year’s Reindeer Road is filled with surprises, including brand-new light sculptures and animated displays that stretch across the park. The soundtrack combines holiday classics with modern twists, keeping the show both nostalgic and fresh. The lights don’t just illuminate—they tell a story. Each color shift and beat of the music brings guests one step closer to Santa’s sleigh.

Why Reindeer Road Is the Best Drive-Through Light Show in Las Vegas

‍

Las Vegas knows how to dazzle, but Reindeer Road brings a different kind of sparkle. It’s not about bright marquees or stage lights—it’s about heart. Every car that drives through becomes part of the story, from the first glimmer at the entrance to the glowing finale at Santa’s Workshop.

‍

Guests love the immersive feeling of being surrounded by light. The synchronized display makes it feel like the whole world is moving in rhythm. Children point out their favorite reindeer, parents snap photos of the glowing scenes, and everyone leaves humming the tunes that carried them through the show. That shared sense of joy is what truly makes Reindeer Road unforgettable.

‍

A Vegas Holiday Tradition

‍

Each year, World of Illumination brings families together in the most magical way. Here in Las Vegas, Reindeer Road has quickly become a must-see holiday tradition. We’ve seen generations of families return year after year—grandparents, parents, and kids all making new memories together. There’s something special about watching the same excitement light up every face in the car.

‍

The Las Vegas community has embraced the show with open arms. From holiday enthusiasts to first-time visitors, everyone agrees: there’s nothing quite like seeing millions of lights dance in harmony under the desert night sky. Whether you’re a local looking for a new tradition or a visitor searching for something spectacular, Reindeer Road offers holiday magic unlike anywhere else.

‍

What’s New for 2025

‍

This year’s Reindeer Road isn’t just returning—it’s expanding. We’ve added new sections that feature more lights, more music, and even more reindeer spirit. Expect breathtaking tunnels of color, glowing snowflakes that twinkle overhead, and an all-new finale that will make your jaw drop. Our creative team has also built interactive elements that bring guests closer to the show than ever before.

‍

And because Las Vegas loves to shine, the light show will feature subtle nods to the city’s iconic flair. Keep an eye out for reindeer with a touch of neon glow, candy canes that shimmer like the Strip, and a sleigh that sparkles brighter than any marquee.
