Holiday in the Park: Six Flags Over Texas
This Six Flags is actually the very first one that was ever built, and in 2021 it carries on its condition of offering Holiday in the Park. So when you visit between November 19th, 2021, and January 2nd, 2022, you just have to pay a $25 admission to be able to have full access to the park. Within Six Flags, the entire park is beaded with bright lights, festive trees, and holiday music plays to welcome you in. But, of course, you can still enjoy the rides, including the tallest steel hybrid roller coaster in the world and an assortment of other fun rides for thrill-seekers this holiday season.
Dallas Zoo Lights
The Dallas Zoo is one of the most famous zoos globally, and this year they kicked it up a notch with their holiday light tour! For $65 per car, you can drive through this gorgeous illuminated park that is lit in a myriad of colors and light sizes while the zoo animals sleep and relax.
