Get ready to be jingled with excitement because the Royal Gorge Bridge & Park is absolutely thrilled to unwrap a dazzling drive-thru light extravaganza again this 2024 Holiday Season!
Prepare to have your holiday spirit set aglow with the Bridge of Lights holiday event at the Royal Gorge Bridge and Park. Picture this: the magnificent suspension bridge, like Santa’s sleigh, bedecked with thousands of lights, twinkling and winking at you for the festive season. And the best part? This debut light show is your golden ticket to merriment, kicking off mid-November and carrying on through the starry New Year’s Eve.
Hop in your sleigh-on-wheels and cruise across the bridge, basking in the splendor of these enchanting lights that bedeck the entire park. The Royal Gorge at night, decked out in holiday garb, is a sight that will have you believing in holiday magic. The chance to drive across this twinkling wonderland is as rare as a sleigh ride with naughty elves, making it a truly special treat!

It’s the perfect way to stay snug and satisfied as you embark on this one-of-a-kind journey. We are also selling fun light up toys for the little ones joining along!
So, make this remarkable location an essential stop on your holiday light tour—it’s bound to become a cherished Holiday tradition, with more whimsy than a troop of mischievous elves on a cocoa-fueled escapade!
