The Old West Christmas Light Fest is back! Fifteen nights of twinkling lights strung through our six-acre Old West town, November 27 through December 23. Live music on the saloon stage every night, trick roping out in the street, and free photos with Santa — gates at 5:00, lights until 10:00!
The whole town goes up in lights and you walk straight through the middle of it. Food trucks out on the green lawn, and Santa in his chair for free photos.
Tickets are on sale now: general admission is $25, military and first responders $20, and kids five and under are always free. The new 2026 Season Pass is $37.50, so it pays for itself on the second visit!
A different act plays the Silver Spur stage every night of the festival, 5:30 to 9:30. Fifteen nights, fifteen line-ups!
Our trick roper works the town from 6:00 to 7:00 every night and is always happy to spin a loop around whoever steps up. And on select nights there are free line dancing lessons at the Outdoor Pavilion from 7:30 to 8:30 — no extra charge, just bring your boots!
Here is what most folks do not realize: the Light Fest runs on select evenings, which leaves the ranch open for private events right through the season — with the whole town already decorated.
Daytime, any day. The festival gates do not open until five o’clock, so the town is yours for a private holiday luncheon. Your group in a decorated Old West town, with the Silver Spur and the Six Gun ready for lunch and a program.
Evenings, on nights the festival is closed. We open the whole decorated town to one group — a full winter wonderland, and nobody in it but your people. It is the company Christmas party nobody forgets!
Availability moves as the season fills up, so give us a shout and we will walk you through what is still open.
Site visits for private events are by appointment. Give our team a call and we will set one up!
