I thought I reviewed this years ago. I think this is a different listing. However, I will say that this has been a family tradition with me and Mom for the past 10 years or so. We really do love it a lot.The deal you get with Groupon cannot be beat, as you receive four free hot cocoas to enjoy during your drive. Also a treat when it is just two of you, so that's two cocoas each! lol!The lights are always beautiful and a treat. The customer service from the volunteers who work here is top notch. You can tell that they really like being here. The only downside is the drive to get here, depending where you live. I live in Henderson, so it is quite the hike! But the experience is definitely worth it and I will never miss a visit. The path appeared to be a little different this year, but that was fine with me. And they try and change the lights up a bit so it isn't exactly the same as the year prior. Put this on your holiday list. I visited way back in the day when it was at Sunset Park and it is WAY better than it was back then. And I also love the live performance at the end of the drive, but those are only on specific nights.

Las Vegas shines brighter than ever during the holiday season, and Glittering Lights at the Speedway is one of its most magical experiences. Don't forget the festive concession like hot cocoa, apple cider, and kettle corn with all proceeds going to local Boy Scout troops. There's only a few days left to check out Glittering Lights so grab your family and soar through the speedway like an eagle!

I've been wanting to check out this experience for many years & finally got to in Dec. 2024. I had read on Groupon that on the date I was going it was best to either go when they first open or closer to closing time due to long waits. We got there a little before 8pm. Not sure what time cars can't get in line because I couldn't find it posted anywhere. There was a line when we got there but we couldn't see the start of it & there was a worker telling us which line to get in based on what admission we were buying (GA). I had asked "how long is the wait?" and he said "2.5 hrs." My friend & I were like "what the heck?" to each other but the line was actually moving so I thought "maybe its really not 2.5 hrs?" Well guess what?!?!?!? He was right!! It took us that long to get to the entrance line. Then it took about 40 minutes to drive thru it, so we spent a lot of time here.....lolI like how they have port-a-potties along the way because they came in handy but man the one I popped in was so nasty. People are gross when they just want to throw stuff around inside of there, they do have trash cans outside that people can throw baby diapers in or whatever else they want so staff doesn't do a great job in keeping them clean from stuff all over the floor or next to the toilet seat. Once you get to the line to pay & purchase snacks there are "real" bathrooms which were so much nicer. You do have time to run over to one quickly due to the line hardly moving once your up at the front. Staff up front were nice. There was someone giving away 3 different jars of Taco Bell dips which was nice but when I got home & looked @ what they were they weren't anything I wanted to try. We also got a scratch ticket & I won a FREE medium size one topping pizza from Marco's. They also have some hot chocolate & popcorn for sale. We didn't purchase any snacks. The line once you were inside the lights did move nicely. There was a lot of advertisements for local business's which was kinda obnoxious. They did have some cute displays but unfortunately this event is a ONE & DONE for me. Going once is enough & I won't/need to come back again. I am glad that I finally got to experience it after all these years of wanting to go. I do suggest don't go close to Christmas or when they say wait times are longer on listed dates unless your OK with spending several hours there. It was almost 4hrs total & we were coming from Henderson (new hendo) too.

Went here for the first time last month and it was great. They charge by the car so you can stuff as many ppl in there as you want, lol. It was $39, and took us about 30-45 to drive through. This was the most beautiful Christmas light attraction I've ever seen. At the entrance you can purchase coco & popcorn. They tell you to turn off your headlights, then you start your self guided tour. It's on the speedway so pay attention to the winding road. You go at a very slow pace to take in the beautiful scenes, there are cars in front & behind you. You can stop briefly and take pics & video. We will definitely go again.

Did the Glittering lights. Great fun experience, but there are kids there and marijuana is everywhere. Should not be allowed for this event.

We've been wanting to go to Glittering Lights for several years now but just haven't been able to, so we were all super excited to make it happen this year!. I bought tickets online and we loaded up our car and went for some holiday fun and cheer. We got there at about 5:45 on Monday the 16th, a bit confusing on where to go but we found the entrance and had a very short wait. As we were told to go ahead and enter, there was a car ahead of us with flashers on so we waited behind. The only person with a vest and wand was not directing traffic and just walking around. Several cars went around and I finally got the guy's attention as he was walking away and asked if I could go. He said "yea man go ahead" and continued to walk away. Meanwhile cars were just driving around and there was no guidance. Once we entered the initial area was quite nice with lots of lights and great theme with the Grinch. We did notice right away that there was so many advertisements for businesses. As we continued through the drive, the themes were odd and off the holiday and Christmas spirit we were expecting. There were dinosaurs and many other off topic displays like fairy tail and other non Christmas or holiday themes. The advertisements were prevalent and really overshadowed everything else. Every couple of displays there were several ads for lawyers, restaurants, casinos and more. Even our kids asked why so much of that. And only a couple even said happy holidays from...so and so. Sure they raise money for charity, but it's way too much and takes away from the reason we go. The overall lights were nice, but most displays had us guessing what they were supposed to be and lacking detail and clarity. The other note is that the music was not coordinated with your drive. We were told to tune in to Sunny 106.5 which plays Christmas music but they always do so nothing special there either. We've been to several of these drive throughs and this has been the most disappointing, especially with all the hype.I think there is a fantastic opportunity here, especially with the location and amount of area they have to work with, but they really miss the mark here. When sponsorship is more important than the spirit and experience then something is wrong. If you really need the advertising then how about put them all at the end with a special thanks to them all. I see most responses they focus on how much they donate, and how sponsors help. I'd gladly pay a bit more if their donation efforts were more prevalent and they upgraded their displays and experience. Get rid of all the ridiculous ads. I recommend they take a look at the quality of the experience and focus on the true Christmas spirit. Until then, we will not return or recommend. Sorry Glistening Lights, appreciate your efforts but you need to regroup and refocus.

Oh boy! I've lived here 23 years and I had never been to Glittering Lights! We had a great time, it's so beautiful and the employees were the nicest people! So helpful and kind! Great energy and a cool experience! I'm going every year now! We went on Christmas Day (evening) and it was a very short wait, maybe 15 minutes to get to the entrance. Sounds like the key is to go on Christmas to beat the crowd!

So disappointed in the way that this business is handling their own mistake. Their " Veteran's Appreciation Night" has been advertised to be open to Veterans and Active duty, or in their own postings on social media "veterans and military with valid ID". Safe to assume that " and military" includes active duty as well right? To go even further, I will add photos from their own website that clearly states "This special evening honors veterans and active-duty military with FREE entry to Nevada's premier Christmas light show." Knowing all of this information, can someone explain to me why several active duty family members were turned away at the entrance on Veterans Day 11/11/2024? Only after waiting in line for so long, no information posted anywhere on the premises that it was a veterans only night. Finally pulling up to the front to be told sorry it's only for veterans today? Confusion, that's not what your website or social media accounts say. While I appreciate that the offer of free entry is even available to military families, I am extremely disappointed that the entire team of this business were not on the same page with information and couldn't find a better way to tell us this before we made the whole trip over. There were other families expressing their disappointment and some who said they had no issues getting in when showing their active duty ID? Nobody is on the same page, clearly. To make matters worse, Glittering lights started to respond to everyone leaving comments the next day with the same copy and paste generic message.I'd also like to point out that Veteran's Day is to honor those who have served, and are currently serving, in the U.S. military.

Glittering Lights was the right way to start off the holiday season. The staff is friendly, we truly appreciated the military night, and it's a good light show. It is a good length and it's neatly put together. Would come back!

If you like Christmas lights, this is your go to. You tune your radio or phone to HoHo Radio and drive through the display. The route winds around Las Vegas Motor Speedway going under and around the grandstands and around the sides and by motor home hill. Over 5 million lights give you something to see and enjoy. Favorites are the displays under the grandstands and the light tunnels on the back side of the track. Have driven my cars, a golf cart and one of the trams through the display and see something new almost every trip. It is very organized and well run. Snacks are available at the entrance. Best of all is part of your admission fee goes to Speedway Children's Charities. New displays every year so make Glittering Lights an annual family tradition.
