By Fort Mill Macaroni Kid December 11, 2022

The Carolina Holiday Light Spectacular will transform Ballantyne’s Backyard December 15th – December 31st  with an outdoor enchanting walking trail filled with over a million illuminated lights, larger-than-life holiday installations and scenes that will dazzle all visitors.  This is a holiday event tailored for all ages and we're giving away 4 tickets to one lucky winner!

The pace of the Holiday Spectacular is up to each guest.  The walk-thru experience allows guests to enjoy the lights and scenes at a leisurely pace, but can be as little as an hour or more.
