Warren County families can look forward to a festive tradition this year as the popular Nights of Lights drive‑through light show moves to the Warren County Fairgrounds. The display opens on November 20 and runs nightly through January 2, giving residents a convenient, weather‑protected way to enjoy the holiday season.
What visitors can expect
Organizers promise more than two million dazzling lights arranged in sparkling tunnels, animated scenes and festive music that syncs to beloved holiday classics. Drivers travel at a leisurely pace through the immersive displays, staying comfortably inside their vehicles while the lights and sounds create a memorable experience for all ages.

Tickets are now on sale. Cars carrying eight passengers or fewer can purchase a ticket for $33, while larger vehicles with nine or more occupants are priced at $54. Tickets can be bought online via the provided link, and families are encouraged to secure their spots early, as the event has quickly become a regional favorite.
Why the move matters
Moving the show to the fairgrounds brings the tradition closer to a broader audience across the region. The fairgrounds location offers ample parking, easy highway access and a familiar community setting, making it simple for families from surrounding towns to join the celebration without a long drive.
Community impact
Beyond providing holiday cheer, the event supports local businesses. Vendors stationed near the fairgrounds can expect increased foot traffic, and the influx of visitors contributes to the county’s seasonal economy. The fairgrounds themselves benefit from heightened visibility, reinforcing their role as a hub for community gatherings.
Safety and convenience
Because the experience is car‑based, attendees can remain safely inside their vehicles, reducing exposure to cold weather and minimizing crowding. Organizers have coordinated with local authorities to ensure smooth traffic flow and adequate signage, helping families enjoy the lights without congestion.
How to plan your visit
Visitors should plan to arrive early, especially on weekends, to avoid peak traffic. The fairgrounds are located off County Road 3, with clear directions posted on the event website. Restroom facilities are available on site, and there are designated areas for stroller parking.
Looking ahead
With the success of previous years, the Nights of Lights team hopes to make the fairgrounds the permanent home for the display, creating a lasting holiday tradition for Warren County and neighboring communities. Organizers invite feedback from attendees to help shape future enhancements.
