What to expect at the 24th Annual Holiday Lights Safari Benefit: 

The nearly 100 acre park that serves as an Animal Park with safari bus rides from March through October each year transforms into a drive-through wonderland in November through the first Saturday of the New Year. It's a great time for all for making precious memories. Here's a sneak peek at all that our Holiday Lights Safari Benefit offers you and yours.  

Watch our Commercial, our Snowfall Video, and a touching Video to get a preview of all the event has to offer.  Then take a look at Spartanburg Herald Journal Photographer Tim Kimzey's view in this Photo Album!

Admission is $6 per person. You can add the Enchanted Deer Forest  experience for an additional $10 per car, which includes animal food. There, deer, zebras, and exotic cattle breeds (African Watusi, Scottish Highlanders, Bison, and more) can come to your car for a visit and snacks. 

Bottom line:  A family of four can spend a few fun, no pressure hours enjoying time together driving through the lights and walking through Santa's village for $24. It's even less if you come on a Tuesday night (see coupon below) or if you get one of the Upstate Parent coupons or one of the student coupons that are mailed to area elementary school children. If you want to add the Deer Forest, your total would be $34. Of course you can spend more, buying dinner and gifts in Santa's Village or taking pony rides, but even on a tight budget, the Holiday Lights Safari Benefit is a great way to spend your family fun budget or plan your date night. We hope it also warms your heart to know that by coming, your admission helps support the care of the hundreds of animals who call Hollywild home. 

The Holiday Lights Safari Benefit  runs nightly for its 2014-15 season from Saturday, November 15th through Saturday, January 3rd. Party Bus rides are available for the lights for birthdays and holiday group events. Visit www.hollywild.org or call (864)472-2038  to learn more! We also offer gift certificates for our Holiday Lights Safari Benefit and our Full Season Membership!
