Enjoy more than one million lights decorating Stephen C. Beachy Central Park. The lights will be on from Nov. 27 to Jan. 1 each night from 6 to 11 p.m.
Admission is free, and parking is available in the park.
Don’t forget to bring your wish list for Santa. Staff has arranged with his elves to accept letters in the North Pole mailbox outside the Central Park office. To ensure delivery, letters can be dropped off from Nov. 27 through Dec. 24.
The only night you cannot drive through the park is Dec. 6, when preparations take place for the Christmas in the Park event. The drive-thru closes at 7 a.m. to keep everyone safe during setup for visits with Santa, hayrides, and plenty of cookies and hot cocoa.
