If you have not attended the "Gift of Lights" holiday show at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, I don't mean to throw shade, but WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

This is the year to go, and it all starts this Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 24!

According to the NHMS website, the family tradition of driving through 2.5 miles of dazzling Christmas light displays is continuing with the 12th annual event. For 39 nights, the NHMS spreads holiday cheer and fundraises for the local community, with more than 3.5 million twinkly LED lights on display.

My favorite part is the tunnel of lights! It's mesmerizing...

Tickets are on sale now for $30-35 per car. Have a big crew? Ball out and rent a limo or bus! As the wise Taylor Swift once said, 'TIS THE DAMN SEASON.

If you go, I recommend curating the perfect Christmas song playlist that you can jam out and sing along to while you drive through. It really enhances the whole experience!

I go with my girlfriends every year, and we always have a ball. Here are some photos I took in years past, but of course, seeing these displays twinkle and glow in real life is 10 times cooler:

People work REALLY hard to get this light show up and running. We're talking over 650 hours of man power! Get in the holiday spirit and grab your tickets today.

The event runs from Thanksgiving to Sunday, January 1, 2023. More info here!
