Holiday in the Park, Six Flags Eureka






Location: 4900 Six Flags Rd, Eureka, MO 63025

Website: https://www.sixflags.com/stlouis/events/holiday-in-the-park-lights

Six Flags first opened for the Christmas holiday in 2016. Usually, they shut down after Halloween Fright Fest until summer. Here's the low down: The park is decorated with lots of lights and photo ops. They have some new food offerings, entertainment, and attractions,  but otherwise, it's just Six Flags in the cold with lights.








They have tons of things there that they want you to buy but they won't get my money ha! Kringles Kottage was cute, Mrs. Claus was really fun with my daughter and this photo is now one of my all-time favorites! 





We saw almost all of the entertainment. The characters of Christmas were walking around and we got photos with several of them. We didn't see the Holiday Harmonies (Dickens' style carolers). We saw the Magic of Christmas light show in front of the palace and it was neat. The trees do a great show accompanied by fun songs and it's a good length of time. Right after that, we went inside the palace for the Majesty of Christmas show. It was a live nativity and my daughter loved the animals! Mary rode in on a donkey, they had sheep, and a wise man came in on a camel. The acting was very cheesy, super dramatic, and it was extremely loud. The flyer says "an angel will fly over the stable" but he didn't, he just was lowered down and then raised back up. It was still an enjoyable show though. 













The photo ops scattered around the park are really cute.










 As far as food goes like I said we have a food pass and had no interest in buying a refillable hot cocoa cup because my kids don't drink it. They're offering turkey legs with cranberry sauce, cinnamon pretzels, spiced cider, and cinnamon on funnel cakes. If you pick up a flyer when you come in it will tell you where all the food is being sold because not every restaurant is open. 

Probably the coolest thing was riding the Colossus so we could see the lights from up high. You could see Santa's Magical Kingdom next door too! 



The petting zoo is new. You can buy a cup of food also.
