Lanier Islands bids farewell to Magical Nights of Lights, replaces with walkable light display

Officials with Lanier Islands have decided to end the drivable Magical Nights of Lights after nearly thirty years, replacing them with a walkable light show.

The new Lakeside Lights Spectacular will feature a walkable holiday lights tour set to holiday tunes, according to a news release from Lanier Islands. The show is in continued partnership with Safe Harbor.

Guests will have the opportunity to stroll through the new display and pick up either hot cocoa or cocktails along the way. There will also be chances to pay a socially-distanced visit with Santa, ride carnival rides and participate in other holiday-themed activities.

“We feel blessed that the Magical Nights of Lights has played so heavily in the holiday traditions of countless families around the South,” said Grier Todd, VP of Operations for Lanier Islands. “While we are sad to say goodbye to the Magical Nights of Lights, we are excited to see the reaction from our guests to Safe Harbor’s new interpretation.”

Todd said that the new setup allows visitors to enjoy the show at their own pace and take pictures along the way, as well as providing easier access to some of the activities.

Lakeside Lights Spectacular will open for the first night on November 20 and run nightly through January 5. Then the show will switch to weekend-only nights until February 21.

Lanier Islands will continue to offer holiday-themed accommodations at the Legacy Lodge, including Breakfast and Santa Package, Virtual Elf Tuck-In Package, Elf PJ Story Time Package, Winter Family Fun Package with Two to Four Passes to Snow Island, and the Complete Holiday Adventure Package.

Potential visitors can learn more about Lakeside Lights Spectacular and other upcoming attractions at Lanier Islands through their social media accounts or website.
