Life University distributed the following press release about its annual holiday lights display:
Drive-through display lights up Marietta Nov. 26 through Dec. 31, with $15 per vehicle admission
Life University will flip the switch on more than 1 million twinkling lights Thanksgiving night, Nov. 26, launching the 37th annual Lights of Life. Guests are invited to celebrate the season at one of metro Atlanta’s most affordable family-friendly holiday attractions. The display glows nightly through New Year’s Eve.
Visitors can cruise through whimsical displays and glowing tunnels from the comfort of their vehicles, then stop at designated walk-around areas for photos and snacks. With flat-rate admission of $15 per car or truck and $30 per bus, any night of the season, Lights of Life is an easy, affordable way to celebrate the holidays. Vehicle admission includes access to the full light display. Additional attractions, including amusement rides, a petting zoo and train rides, are available for a small fee, and concessions are available on site. Proceeds from the event benefit student scholarships and campus beautification at the university.
“For more than three decades, Lights of Life has been our way of saying thank you to Marietta and the surrounding area, and the overwhelming support has helped open doors for Life University students and made our campus a more welcoming place to learn,” said Life University President Dr. Brian Kelly. “That’s only possible because of the neighbors, families, guests and alumni who visit year after year. We’re honored to be the place where this community makes its holiday memories, and we can’t wait to welcome you back this season.”
