Fantasy in Lights at Callaway Resort & Gardens Starts Friday
Thursday, November 12th, 2026
One of the Southeast’s most beloved holiday traditions returns this Friday, November 13, as Fantasy in Lights at Callaway Resort & Gardens officially opens for the season. Featuring more than 10 million twinkling lights, 18 dazzling scenes, and a classic seven-mile journey through holiday magic, the annual spectacle invites families and visitors to make memories throughout the holiday season.
Running November 13, 2026, through January 3, 2027, Fantasy in Lights offers several ways to experience the wonder:
- Drive-Through Experience: Guests can enjoy the seven-mile light display from the comfort of their own vehicle, with holiday music accompanying the journey through 18 illuminated scenes.
- Jolly Trolley Tours: For a festive group outing, guests can climb aboard a trolley for a guided journey through the dazzling displays.
- Bike Nights – November 13 & 14: For a one-of-a-kind opening weekend experience, guests can pedal through Fantasy in Lights during special bicycle-only evenings. Riders must have a bicycle headlight, and helmets are strongly recommended (required for riders 16 and younger). Bike Night is a separate experience; cars, trolleys, and walking are not permitted during these sessions.
Beyond the light displays, guests can explore the Callaway Christmas Village, featuring the 40-foot Tree of Traditions Pixel Pine, seasonal shopping, festive treats, Santa meet-and-greets and a winter wonderland walkthrough. The experience also features the all-new Song of the Trees, where towering trees come alive in a spectacular display of color and music.
