About this event
Let’s get into the holiday spirit with a festive evening of good food, good company, and thousands of twinkling lights!
We’ll start the evening with dinner and drinks at a nearby restaurant in Gaithersburg, then head over to the Winter Lights Festival at Seneca Creek State Park for a magical drive through more than 450 illuminated displays.
Optional Pre-Festival Dinner
We'll meet at a nearby Gaithersburg restaurant before heading to the festival. Dinner is optional, and everyone will pay for their own food and drinks.
Dinner time: 6:00 PM Restaurant details will be confirmed closer to the event.
✨ Winter Lights: 8:00 PM
Getting to the festival
You’ll have two options: Carpool with the group — We’ll coordinate drivers and passengers before the event. Since festival admission is per vehicle , passengers can split the ticket cost with their driver.
Drive yourself — Prefer to make your own plans? You can purchase your own vehicle ticket and meet us at the festival around 7:45 PM.
🎟️ Festival tickets are purchased separately and are required in advance.
