KISSIMMEE, Fla. – Give Kids the World Village is bringing back its holiday lights spectacular, Night of a Million Lights, for another year with some new additions.

The nighttime event, which debut last year during the resort’s closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will run Nov. 12 through Jan. 2, 2022, officials announced Thursday.

During the event, Give Kids the World Village will transform into a winter wonderland of lights and holiday decorations. Night of a Million Lights will feature a 360-degree dancing lights show, a sparkling tree trail, larger-than-life holiday displays, photo ops at one-of-a kind step-in frames and backdrops, a holiday marketplace with visits from Santa and a guided tram tour.

New this year, a variety of VIP packages will be available, including dessert parties, behind-the-scenes tours and more.

“We look forward to once again sharing some holiday joy with the community while raising the funds that will enable us to continue creating the happiness that inspires hope for these precious families,” Give Kids the World President and CEO Pamela Landwirth said in a statement.

Night of a Million Lights will run from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., with staggered entry times to prevent crowding. All visitors will be required to follow safety protocols and posted instructions.

Proceeds from the event will benefit Give Kids the World, which provides critically-ill children and their families with weeklong wish vacations at no cost.

Tickets for Night of a Million Lights are now on sale and can be purchased at gktw.org.
