Location: Zilker Park: 2100 Barton Springs Rd.
Experience the magic at the annual Austin Trail of Lights event in Zilker Park, our city’s longest running holiday event. What began as a small gathering in 1965 known as the “Yule Fest,” a gift to the city of Austin from Austin Parks and Recreation Department, has now grown to be a community-wide celebration of the unique spirit and people that make Austin the place we love to call home. In the 61 years since the first Yule Log was lit, the Trail now features more than 2 million lights illuminating the park, 90 lighted holiday trees and more than 70 other holiday displays and lighted tunnels. Today, the Austin Trail of Lights is one of the three largest events in Austin and receives national accolades while remaining a deeply cherished local tradition.
Dates: December 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18
Free General Admission from 7:00-10:00pm
Transportation: A limited number of parking passes are available for advance purchase and will allow you to park in a close-in lot near the event. Or you can avoid driving to Zilker Park and help keep Austin green by purchasing a shuttle pass or parking nearby. More information on the Trail of Lights website.
