The fan-favorite Halloween light show runs from October 1st thru October 31st beginning at 7pm each night, including two all new songs (“I Put a Spell on You” from the Hocus Pocus movie, and a mashup of thrilling music from the Star Wars franchise) and hundreds of new lights.

We’re also right around the corner from our traditional Christmas light show which begins at 5:30pm nightly from November 19th through December 25th. We’ll have a wide-range of new music this year to celebrate the holidays across Southwest Virginia. Christmas light shows will run continuously until 10pm on Sunday thru Thursday nights, and until 11pm on Friday and Saturday nights.
We’re excited to announce that we’re expanding our light show this year to include an all-new “New Year’s Celebration” light show, which will operate starting December 26th through January 16th. We’ll have party and dance songs to ring in the new year and bid adieu to 2021, including “Can’t Stop the Feeling” by the cast of the Trolls movie. This New Year’s Celebration light show will start at 5:30pm each night and run continuously until 10pm on Sunday thru Thursday nights, and until 11pm on Friday and Saturday nights.
And finally, we’re going all out with our first-ever Valentine’s Day light show, premiering on January 21st and running every night through Valentine’s Day night, February 14th. Come enjoy over 10,000 new lights and shapes synchronized to some classic and modern love songs every night starting at 5:30pm. Like our other shows, the lights will run continuously until 10pm on Sunday thru Thursday nights, and until 11pm on Friday and Saturday nights.
DAK Lights is an annual Halloween, Christmas, New Year’s, and Valentine’s Day light and music show which premiered in November 2010 and relocated to Randolph Park in 2018. Every year, thousands of families from around the New River Valley and beyond visit to enjoy a roughly 25-minute light show set to music being broadcast over 103.9FM. Since its inception, the show has grown from about 3,000 incandescent (traditional) lights in white, red, and green to over 20,000 LED lights capable of producing millions of color combinations. DAK Lights has been and always will be free, offering entertainment to everyone each year!
