β¨ TRAIL OF LIGHTS β¨ TICKETS ON SALE NOW!
βοΈ @atxlights
π Zilker Park, 2100 Barton Springs Rd, Austin
π
Dec 10-23
β° 7-10pm (ZIP and Platinum Pass holders get early entry at 6pm)
ποΈ Admission is FREE (no tickets required) on December 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, & 18
π« GA tickets are $8 (kids 11 and under get in free with paid adult ticket)
ποΈ 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.
π« 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.
π‘The rides will cost extra (not sure how much this year). We love the Ferris wheel!
π€ Are the passes worth it? We have done all the options (free, GA, ZIP, and Platinum). It depends! I donβt 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.
π 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 arenβt 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! π
all parking passes must be purchased in advanced online. Lots open at 5:30.
