Awesome drive through light show in Liverpool, NY. TONs of lights many animated. I would guess it takes about a half an hour to drive through the actual lighted road after waiting in line to get in. It is always busy. The closer you go to it just getting dark the better and Sun. - Wed. are also better. There is also huge differences in prices if you go Sun - Wed. versus Thur. - Sat. Tickets are online sales only so make sure you get them ahead of time. Our kids always ask when we're going we drive an hour to go. It's a great family Christmas activity to see the lights, listen to the music, have snacks in your car that you brought from home and didn't over pay for like at the movies and stay warm. It's an economical family event and we look forward to it every year.
We always love the event and this was no exception. HOWEVER..They’ve added a new line that goes down by the lake to help with traffic but in doing this 2/3 of the traffic misses a bunch of lights and doesn’t see the sponsorships. Businesses, churches, etc pay thousands of dollars for everyone to see the sponsorships and lights on the lake hasn’t held up their end of the bargain. Two lines should equal two sets of sponsorships and lights. In the picture you can see the backside of what 2/3 of the cars are missing.
While on a business trip in the Syracuse area, I looked up holiday activities and saw that the Lights on the Lake was very close. I also saw consisteng good-very good review on the internet and decided to give it a try. The Lights on the Lake is a series of lovely light displays set up around the perimeter of Onondaga Lake. Visitors are able to drive along the route while taking in some of these lovely displays. The fees are per vehicle and very reasonable, especially if you go earlier in the week. Tickets are only available in advance online, they CANNOT be purchased at the gate. The fees per car are $20 for Fri, Sat and Sun, $10 for Wed and Thurs and $6 for Mon and Tues. While I think the $20 is fair for a car full of people, the $10 and $6 early-midweek price is insane for the activity. I was riding solo, and went on a Monday, so after some nominal fees, I paid about $7.50...FYI I am from NYC, where similar holiday drive throughs in and around the area easily cost $30-40! There was no wait at around 7 PM on Monday night. Less cars also made it easier to pause and take photos without the pressure of holding up the traffic. While there are signs throughout the route that say "do not stop" in an effort not to hold up traffic, many cars were at least pausing for a few seconds, especially during the larger displays, to snap a few photos. You are also reminded to "stay in your vehicle" at all times. As an added bonus, there are perks on most nights, depending on different sponsors for the event. During my visit, after checking in, I was a given a voucher for a free car wash nearby an $18 value, which I gladly redeemed the following day! Talk about a great deal.... $6 for the Lights on the Lake and a free $18 car wash! Overall I had a great time here. I would love to return again with the family. I highly recommend this activity for everyone, especially on the cheaper nights.
Fun evening. Light's were great. Kids enjoyed the fiber optic wands. Great holiday tradition
Very fun for the kids. Especially the younger ones. Almost a tradition each year.
Awesome Place For The Whole Family. Try To Avoid The Busiest Days Friday & Saturday If Possible
Once you get rolling it's really nice. Took about 1/2 hr to get from the entrance to the ticket scan booth and about 45 mins on the parade. Very well done overall and worth the $10 Wed price. Plus we got a coupon for a $10 car wash so it was basically free.
Amazing trail of Christmas lights! Stay in the warmth of your car and enjoy! This must be close to 2 miles of different characters and themes. We drove from Utica to see them and will try to go every year!
It is a family tradition to go to lights on the lake each year. The lights are always beautifully done and there is always something new. If you haven't gone, you should make plans to go next year!
The lights were absolutely beautiful, but we had to wait 3 hours for a 30 minute show The traffic was backed up for blocks and people were driving in from all directions, creating for a very chaotic, uncoordinated, frustrating situation. I also saw the lights last year and thought they'd be somewhat different this year, but they seemed pretty similar. I'm not sure I would wait next year for another 3 hours. The show was sold out though, so I understand to a certain extent.
