 Night of A Million Lights will be appearing for the third year in a row at Island H2O Water Park in Kissimmee between Nov. 12 to Jan. 1. 

   Millions of lights are displayed in a walk-through set-up, along with several festive holiday activities to raise money for Give Kids The World. Give Kids The World is a nonprofit resort that allows critically ill children and their families to vacation for a week at no cost. 

   Give Kids The World is an 89-acre lot with different whimsical-themed rooms for each family. Give Kids The World has welcomed over 177,000 guests to their resort since 1986, allowing thousands of children to experience a week at an amusement park while being accommodated to their needs.

   There will be everything from live entertainment to holiday arts and crafts at Night of A Million Lights. There is a dancing light show on a five-foot water slide as part of the entertainment. There are dueling pianists called the Mistletunes, an a cappella group named Santa’s Dancing Reindeer, and DJ Jack Frost’s ice block party. 

   Night Of A Million Lights is a winter wonderland featuring a life-sized snow globe, tree-lined pathways filled with hundreds of lights, and tunnels filled with Christmas lights and faux snow. Night Of A Million Lights will have holiday-themed foods, including churros, hot chocolate, make-your-own smores, and an array of other festive foods. 

   In 2020, when Night Of A Million Lights first debuted, USA Today named Night of A Million Lights “the number one thing to do in December in Orlando.”

   Standard tickets are $30 dollars for adults and $15 dollars for kids. Holiday tickets can be purchased at $40 dollars for adults and $20 dollars for kids. Children’s tickets can be purchased for three to 17 year-olds. 

   Individuals who hold an Island H2O Water Park annual pass can get a discount for the Night Of A Million Lights event. Swimming and water-related activities will not be available while Night Of A Million Lights is taking place. 

   Night Of A Million Lights will be held at Island H2O Water Park 3230 Inspiration Dr. Kissimmee, Fl 34747. For more information and tickets, visit www.gktw.org.
