Everything You Need To Know About Butch Bando’s Fantasy of Lights | 614 Mom | Columbus, OH
Thank you Butch Bando’s for sponsoring this post. As always all thoughts and opinions remain my own.
December is one of my favorite months of the year because it’s all about time with family, making gingerbread houses, parties, and pretty lights. One of my favorite traditions is packing the car with my family in their pajamas, complete with hot chocolate and yummy snacks and as we drive around to look for neighborhoods with beautiful lights. The only problem with that is that it’s hard to know where the best lights are and it changes year after year - except for the amazing Butch Bando’s Fantasy of Lights in Alum Creek.
We recently discovered Fantasy of Lights and I am so glad we did - our Decembers will never be the same. :-) Butch Bando’s Fantasy of Lights is a drive thru light show located at the Alum Creek State Park Campgrounds. The show runs seven days a week from November 16-January 1, 2019. Pricing is based on the day of the week and the type of vehicle you are in. Scroll down to learn more about the pricing structure.
