Hi friends! I hope you guys are all having an awesome weekend. I know everyone is shopping this weekend but if you have a chance to get away I’m listing some of my favorite places to see Christmas Lights in Houston! So get your hot cocoa, family, and Christmas sweaters and head out the door!

RIVER OAKS

ADDRESS: 1600 River Oaks Blvd, Houston, TX 77019
PRICE: FREE!

One of my traditions every year is to visit the River Oaks subdivision! Trust me guys these are the best lights in the Houston area! Best part of all they are absolutely free! I normally go around 8 PM and drive around. You can definitely walk as well and trust me you will see a bunch of people doing this. Here’s a big tip if it’s really busy it may just be easier to walk around and get a ton of photos!

ZOO LIGHTS

ADDRESS: 6200 Hermann Park Dr, Houston, TX 77030
PRICE: $19.30-27.95

I visited zoo lights a few years back and had so much fun! You walk around the zoo area looking at all the light displays. They do have ones based on different animals in the zoo. This one can definitely get crowded so I recommend going on a lighter day like a Sunday!

SANTA’S WONDERLAND

ADDRESS: 18898 Hwy 6, College Station, TX 77845
PRICE: $26.95-51.95

I had been dying to visit Santa’s Wonderland and got to a two years ago and guys it was so good! You go on a trailer ride around there huge displays of lights that are so festive and Texan! They have a ton of activities for kids and photo opportunities. Also they have a live band playing all kinds of Christmas music. Try to go on one of their super saver days to save some $$$.

LIGHTS IN THE HEIGHTS

ADDRESS: WOODLAND HEIGHTS AREA
PRICE: FREE

If you’ve ever been to White Linen Night in the Heights then you know this neighborhood loves to party! They also host a very similar event during the holidays and that is Lights in the Heights! The event was last weekend and if you saw my story you saw that I had mentioned it. It really is such a blast but even though the event has passed you can still see all the lights! They really turn it up when it comes to displays and lights so I highly recommend it!

MAGICAL WINTER LIGHTS

ADDRESS: 1000 FM 2004, La Marque, TX 77568
PRICE: $13-22

I got to visit Magical Winter Lights at the beginning of this month and it made all my fairy tale dreams come true! They have everything from a huge castle, a Frozen area, all the under the sea dreams, and a skyline of Houston lit up! You can also see a show and visit Santa while here! I highly recommend visiting it. Btw all the photos in this post are from Magical Winter Lights!
