Winter Wonderland at Tilles Park, Ladue




Location: 9551 Litzsinger Rd., Ladue, MO 63124

Website: https://www.winterwonderlandstl.com/

Winter Wonderland is a drive-through light display. They lost the parking lot so they no longer offer the walk-through or the carriage rides. It is open every year from the end of November through New Year. Current fees are $20 per carload. They are open from 5- 9 p.m. daily. You can purchase those tickets online through Metrotix or pay cash when you go. 

Every year during the holiday season, Tilles Park is transformed into a Winter Wonderland with more than a million twinkling lights and various holiday scenes, including a special holiday wreath, a toy factory, holiday bells, a bubbling stream, a tunnel of lights, and of course, Santa and his reindeer, making it one of the most popular Christmas light displays in the St. Louis area.

A great website to find over-the-top residential displays set to music is Holiday Light Hopping.

Tilles Park, located at the corner of Ladue, Brentwood, and Rock Hill in the mid-county area, is great for all ages. The playground features lots of slides, places to climb, and a swing set with 1 baby swing, 2 sling swings, an expression swing, and 1 adaptive swing. There are also musical instruments to play and a spray fountain for hot days. This splash pad is nice and small and it is surrounded by a ledge for people to sit on. The restroom is right there as well. The pop jets are on from 10 to 6 during the summer months.

There is a smaller playground at the back of the park and the photos are at the end of this post.
