TICKETS ON SALE TUESDAY FOR THE 10TH-ANNUAL WINTER LIGHT SPECTACULAR (Schnecksville, PA) –Eastern Pennsylvania’s most spirited holiday family tradition returns when Lehigh Valley Zoo and Christmas Décor host the 10th-annual Winter Light Spectacular (WLS), presented by Service Electric TV & Communications.

This year’s edition kicks off with a pair of special offers for Opening Weekend (Nov. 10-12).

Additionally, there is a $5 discount for any Adult, Child, VIP Adult or VIP Child ticket purchased online to attend Friday, Saturday or Sunday when using promo code SEN23. Located at LV Zoo in Schnecksville, Pa., WLS is the Zoo’s largest annual fundraiser and was featured by USA Today in “Holiday light displays worth traveling for across America.” In addition to 1.2 million lights – a total more than any other Pennsylvania attraction – WLS features classic holiday scenes (including several new scenes), numerous photo opportunities, multiple fire pits, hot chocolate and so many other holiday treats. There will also be live performances every night featuring a popular princess (Elsa, Anna, Cinderella). Additionally, Santa Claus will be back and available for picture packages during select time frames at select event date through Dec. 23.
