As I was leaving work tonight, they had the archway in front of the Koka Booth box office all lit up. I have to admit, it's beautiful during the day, but it's GORGEOUS at night! It's on a completely different level than standard holiday light displays. After seeing that, I'm definitely going!!

I want to go too. I love that it's not your traditional Xmas display. I mean how many Santa's and reindeer can you see in one life, before it's just another tacky LED ego fest. This looks really cool online. I wish there were boat rides going past the displays. That would be cool. Is this a traveling exhibit or exclusive to Koka Booth. Maybe a Hindi light festival in the future?

A Groupon would sure be appreciated on this event. Hint hint,nudge,nudge..

There is a paved path that goes around the lake. They close/lock the gates at the places where it goes through the amphitheater. If you want to preview things for free, I am guessing you can see a lot of it from across the lake.

I'd go if it was ten bucks. For twice that, no thanks.

If you can get 3 friends, you can get a four pack of tickets for $50.

We bought the 4 pack at the door and they charged a $0.39 fee per a ticket.

We paid $50 online for the family four pack but another $18 for fees.

I liked it, I didn't love it and I definitely thought it was overpriced for what it is. I also wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a holiday lights display as it really wasn't that sort of thing.

I bought a 4-pack there for $50 even. No other fees.

Definitely worth it for that amount in my opinion.
