☃️ @atxlights
📍 Zilker Park, 2100 Barton Springs Rd, Austin
📅 Dec 10-23
⏰ 7-10pm (ZIP and Platinum Pass holders get early entry at 6pm)
🎟️ Admission is FREE (no tickets required) on December 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, & 18
🎫 GA tickets are $8 (kids 11 and under get in free with paid adult ticket)
🎟️ ZIP Passes are $25 and you get 6pm early entry plus access to the ZIP Lounge (free hot cocoa, cookies, etc). Kids 5 and under get in free with a paid adult ZIP Pass.
🎫 Platinum Passes are $95 (or cheaper the more you buy) and you get early entry at 6pm plus valet parking, golf cart shuttle from parking lot, heated Platinum Lounge, one drink ticket, one ride ticket. Kids 5 & under get in free with paid Platinum Pass.

🎡The rides will cost extra (not sure how much this year). We love the Ferris wheel!

🤔 Are the passes worth it? We have done all the options (free, GA, ZIP, and Platinum). It depends! I don’t really think Platinum was worth it for us, but the valet parking and golf cart ride might be worth it for you! If you really hate crowds I would recommend the ZIP Passes.
🚗 Parking is a nightmare! This is by far the worst part which might make the valet parking with the platinum pass very appealing. There are $8 shuttle services, but everybody says they aren’t very good. You can also prepay for a parking pass over by the Zilker Tree (polo fields) for $25. If you get there early enough, you will find a spot otherwise good luck! 😅 all parking passes must be purchased in advanced online. Lots open at 5:30.

🎃 DISCOUNT CODE FOR @pumpkinnights 🎃

👉 Use code: austinfunforkids to get 10% off weeknight tickets to Pumpkin Nights!

We went last night and the weather was perfect! 🤌 I even got to wear a flannel 😭 🤩

We liked getting there at 7, because it was still a little bit light out so we could get some cool photos in the Village with the sunset in the background. We could also let the kids run around and were still able to see them! We bought refreshments and caught the first fire show at this time as well.

🌙 Once it got dark we headed out on the trail. Jogging strollers and wagons should be ok, but it is dirty and bumpy so don’t wear nice shoes.

🚶‍♀️The trail is about a half mile and we took about an hour to complete the trail. Your time will depend on how fast you move through the sections (see-saws and sandpit will take a while).

📸 There were so many great, well-lit photo-ops, many of which had workers there who offered to take your picture which was nice!

👻 Nothing is really that scary, so I think toddlers would do ok here unless they are extremely sensitive. There are no jump scares or anything like that. Mostly stuff like spiders, Harry Potter, Chinese lanterns, the movie Coco, etc.

You can go through the trail again if you want, but my kids were ready to leave since this was our 4th year going. We really do love it there and look forward to this event every year!

🚗 Parking is $10 and I highly recommend checking to see what row you parked in (it took us a while to find our car lol)!
