SUMMARY:Lights on the Bay @ Sandy Point State Park
DESCRIPTION:The beach at Sandy Point State Park is a summer must\, but have you seen it in winter? From November 23-January 3\, 2027\, the shoreline glows in a whole new light! \nYou’re invited to Lights on the Bay — a scenic two-mile illuminated drive along the shore of the Chesapeake Bay. A beloved holiday tradition for more than 30 years\, the show features over 70 animated and stationary displays lining the roadway. \nThere are lots of ways to make your visit more immersive. Tune your radio to holiday music as you cruise\, and grab a pair of 3D glasses (sold at the park entrance) to watch select displays pop.

Don’t miss Lights & Leashes — three nights when you can stroll the route on foot with your leashed pup. Santa stops by during Lights & Leashes and on select days throughout the season\, so check the website for his schedule. \nEven better\, proceeds benefit the SPCA of Anne Arundel County\, the county’s largest and oldest animal welfare organization. \nThe show runs nightly\, including holidays. Buy tickets online to save time at the gate\, or purchase them there. Military personnel and first responders receive discounted admission at the gate with valid ID on December 21 and 27. \nCome back when the weather warms up\, too. Sandy Point State Park spans 786 acres along the bay\, with sandy beaches made for swimming\, sandcastles\, and picnics. If the beach isn’t your speed\, nature trails wind through the park\, many with sweeping bay views.

SUMMARY:ZooLights: Where the Wild Things Glow! @ National Zoo
DESCRIPTION:Stroll through a glowing winter wonderland at ZooLights\, the Smithsonian’s National Zoo’s beloved holiday tradition! \nEnvironmentally friendly lights transform the Zoo’s paths and walkways on select nights from November 20\, 2026-January 3\, 2027\, kicking off with a Friday-Sunday opening the weekend before Thanksgiving. \nAlong the way\, follow a lantern adventure through ocean\, desert\, grassland\, rainforest\, and polar habitats. Plus\, select December nights add live music\, carolers\, and holiday trivia\, all included with admission! \nMake the night extra special with on-site add-ons\, including rides on the Zoo’s hand-carved Conservation Carousel (weather permitting)\, the National Zoo Choo Choo mini-train around the Great Cats exhibit\, and a winter-themed maze filled with photo-worthy surprises. Little ones will love the festive glasses\, too\, since their special lenses turn the lights into snowflakes! Warm up with hot cocoa\, cider\, and s’mores kits\, available for purchase. \nMembers can enjoy exclusive Member Nights (December 8-9)\, and grown-ups can plan a night out at the 21+ Adults-Only Night (December 16). Both include special access to select animal houses. Keep in mind that on other nights\, indoor animal houses are closed and most outdoor animals are resting. Even better\, every visit helps support the Zoo’s mission to save species and protect habitats worldwide! \nTickets are required for ages 3 and older (kids 2 & under are free). Because of limited capacity\, tickets and parking passes often sell out\, so buy in advance and only through the Smithsonian’s National Zoo\, as third-party tickets may be voided.
