Thank you to everyone who participated in this year\'s Lights Before Christmas!
Check back next year for details on the next Lights Before Christmas!
Don't miss the all-new Music in Motion Lights Spectacular!

Showing nightly during Lights Before Christmas
every 15 minutes in front of the sea lion exhibit.
A 10-minute digital light show complete with enchanting holiday carols and seamlessly choreographed lights. The show starts as music, accompanied by a slow build of lights, and crescendos into a dazzling display of moving colors and patterns. Watch in wonder as a
20-foot, computer-animated tree dances to a medley of holiday favorites, from "Jingle Bells" to "Holly Jolly Christmas," while spotlights sweep the ground, stars sparkle and snowflakes fall. In keeping with the Riverbanks mission, the environmentally friendly tree is lit with LED lights.
