We came on a weekend night around 8:30. They had all the vehicles lined up in rows to wait. We stayed parked in line for almost an hour. When it was almost our turn to go, an employee came by to explain the rules and inform us of the radio station to tune into to listen to their synchronized Christmas music. We had to turn off our headlights and maximum speed driving through the light show was 3mph. Perfect. I don't know what exactly I was expecting but I thought it was great! My son LOVED it!!! This was a perfect outdoor physically distancing holiday activity!! The lights and designs were amazing. It took us about 20-25 minutes to drive through the whole light show. We went pretty slow since we were all in a line but it gave us time to take in all the lights and different designs. We really enjoyed it!! Definitely worth the almost-an-hour drive it took us to get out here. Oh and FYI, there were portable bathrooms that I noticed as we were driving towards the beginning of the light show. I didn't see any portable sinks though. Might be best to stop somewhere first for a bathroom break. read more

Went to the one at the racetrack. A lot of the light were out. It was advertised that you could drive through but when we go up there only the hayride was available. $20+ per person! Very expensive for the experience. Staff was nice and they tried to make it enjoyable. Probably wouldn't recommend this site. read more

Tip: buy your ticket online it's cheaper ! So my cousins begged me to take me to this light show they found via tic tok! If I'm being honest it's a bit pricey for how short the show is . Maybe 10-15 mins of driving through lights. The lights were nice and it was easy to drive through. They have a station you can turn on to hear Christmas music while you drive through . You can't get out your car but you drive so slow you can take plenty of pics. We got some good shots abs videos. Great for parents with multiple kids because you pay per car. Definitely recommend for smaller kids , the older ones will like it too but the shortness of it for older kids can make it an issue . All in all great covid free way to see lights abs enjoy time with the family read more

We ordered our tickets way in advance for any day. We decided to go the week before Christmas and get there right when they opened at 6:00. We pulled in at 5:50 and there were already two lines of cars waiting. They scanned our tickets while waiting and let us in a few minutes before 6:00. The line moved the whole time and we loved the music with the dancing lights. It was a great show and easy to get in and out of. Highly recommend! read more

YES! Just what we needed at this exact moment! A covid friendly activity to do with the whole family! WE LOVED IT and our 2 month old loved it too! This is one of those things we plan on doing every year! I can see this grow more and more every year! Get there early as the line does fill up quickly, but moves quickly too. We did a video blog about it so look for that online, just look for #kasventures on all social media platforms for more about this awesome light show! read more

This is a complete scam. We waited for over 4 hours just to get in. Once we were in it's just a basic light show. Staff were unorganized and had no clue what was going on. They were just funneling us in to wait. read more

Dasher's Lightshow - Festivals Near Me - Hockley, Texas

The worst organization I have ever seen. Imagine sitting in your vehicle with a two year old for 2 hrs in a line. And once we get into the gate you still have a 2 hr wait. 4hrs in and I'm over it. If it's supposed to be a drive thru why the fuck am I not driving. Just sitting here looking stupid while they try to merge 20 lines into one. This shit is ridiculous. We are not coming back here ever. If you value your time do not go here. I can't even rate the show because I've been here for three hours and haven't seen the lights. The owners don't care that you have a car full of kids that have to piss. read more

Dasher's Lightshow - Traffic - Festivals Near Me - Hockley, Texas

FYI to everyone complaining ( common sense) to avoid any large crowds never go anywhere on the weekend. My entire family loved the experience we went on a Thursday night I brought the ticket online due to convenience. My son's age 5 and 7 we're ecstatic over the talking reindeer and santa's my daughter was over the moon with the lights that draped over the vehicle my husband and I also had a wonderful time enjoying the dancing lights with Festive music. we will definitely be back our new tradition! I would like to say Thank you to the owners of this operation. 2020 has been a hard year for my children this company was able to bring a smile to their faces. read more

Enjoy this while you can! Remember the light show in College Station before it got so big? I think this will follow suit in no time. This is a fun time at a great price. Don't miss out! read more

Dasher's Lightshow - Festivals Near Me - Hockley, Texas

Went on the Sunday night before Christmas. Bought tickets ahead of time and there was absolutely no line. Went right in, which was great! Loved that the lights were synchronized with the music on the radio station they tell you to put on. It was really well done. Great lights, great music, great holiday outing! Thought it was a bit short (15mins) for the money paid and the road is rough. Sometimes it's hard to pay attention to the lights when you're car is going through massive potholes. read more

The price online is 9.95 per person and even the Houston Chronicle lists it at 9.95 per person, but if you go in person and do not pay online, they try to charge you $15 per person. They tried to say well, the price is different online. I called them out on this because nowhere on their website does it say that the $9.95 is an "online only price", and everywhere else that the light show is advertised there is no word about $15 per person. When I said that to the attendants, they then lowered the price back to 9.95, but be aware that they will be doing this to people at the gate, hopefully not just to the elderly, because it was my older parents who asked the attendants the price, and never once before I stepped in was it mentioned to my parents that the tickets were cheaper online! If you are in a group of more than 4 people, this pricing makes a difference and the show is definitely not worth over $100 to see. To give you an idea: If you are in a group of 7 people then at the entrance you will be asked to pay around $105, but if you had purchased tickets online you would only pay $66. That's over $30 difference which might matter to people! In addition, the whole show is like 10 minutes or less to drive through and see everything, and it is mostly the same thing over and over: lit up tree shaped towers. There are nice neighborhoods in the Houston area, like Prestonwood Forest near 249 at Cypresswood, with way better FREE themed light displays than Dasher's overpriced drive thru! Each street in the Prestonwood neighborhood has a different theme and you pay nothing to enjoy it all. read more

Last year we went to the light show and it was Awesome ..We even went through a second time .. We went tonight.It wasn't that good .. So sad .. We were looking forward to seeing the lights., What they had was nice but not good like last year read more

If you want your family to wait in a car for 4 1/2 hours to see a pretty cool light show then this is your place. Beware it is a bathroom desert with little room between the car lines and it feels really claustrophobic. By the time my family got to the show I could not wake up the kids to enjoy it. read more

Dasher's Lightshow - Beware it is a bathroom desert with little room between the car lines and it feels really claustrophobic! - Festivals Near Me - Hockley, Texas

Just wanted to warn those planning to go to Rudolph's Lightshow during the weekend. We got home not too long ago and we waited between 2.5-3 hours total for the 20 minute drive thru. I'm not exaggerating. There's traffic you sit in to get to the entrance and when you get in they put you in lanes to wait and actually drive thru. That wait once inside the area was 45-50 minutes. We were told different times by employees and just gave up asking at one point. ‍ My kids enjoyed the lights but I won't be back unless it's a weekday and even then I'd really have to be at the peak of my Christmas spirit to go. Not likely. So if you go on the weekend go to the bathroom before you go because they only have porta-potties. Pack a snack or meal for that matter unless you plan to pay for their bagged popcorn. And PACK EVERY OUNCE OF YOUR PATIENCE. And once you've packed it pack more. I saw a few people leave and get refunds due to wait times. I should have known when they said cut your engine off to save gas. Anyways! I hope this helps. I'm including the flyer they give you once you finally make it "inside" so it may make more sense. Also, last but not least remind the driver to pay attention. We saw someone get rear ended on our way out because they got distracted by the tunnel of lights they were going through. read more

This Lightshow is bringing joy safely to all during this time. The lights were amazing. The music was perfect. My kids wanted to go again and again, so we bought a rerun and drove through and sang all the songs as loud as we could. Thank you for bringing holiday cheer a little earlier this year. We needed it. read more

This was so much fun! My kids loved the lights and knew the songs. We will be coming back with more family for sure! This is going to be a new tradition for our family!! read more

Run run Rudolph. Rudolph's light show is just awesome. The lights are so pretty and dance along to the music you tune in on your radio. My niece and nephew absolutely loved the the characters that sign along to the music. My favorite part is the oil well spouts and the Texas flag that runs across the huge tree out front playing Deep in the Heart of Texas. read more

Let me just say that all the reviews are on point!! My husband, college daughter and I headed to the lightshow hoping to create a Christmas memory. We picked up our Starbucks and listened to the wonderful Michael Buble' to start our journey. As we approached the line we were very optimistic that it would flow easily and fast, perhaps it was the caffeine that gave us hope... welp the caffeine wore out off !! We were in line for 2 hours and the only "lightshow" we saw were the RED BRAKE LIGHTS IN OUR FACES FROM THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF US. By reading the reviews it sounds like we would have waited an additional 2 hours, we were fortunate enough to come to an intersection where we said ELF this crap!! What started off as a Hallmark movie ended as a Halloween movie. While we sat there waiting we couldn't help but to feel bad for the parents that brought little ones. I'm sad to say this not a lightshow but a poop show! These people need better structure all together. They need to hire more staff, invest in signage to give updates in the long lines and update their website with the heads up on waiting. I rarely give reviews but if I had little ones I would definitely appreciate the heads up. read more

I took my family there last night (Monday) and my 6 & 8 year olds, as well as the adults, enjoyed the lights! We rode through twice. We bought tickets on-line for the 6 PM slot and there was barely a wait. We will be back next year! read more

We went yesterday 12/14 at 7pm . The lights are GREAT and we really enjoyed it with our grandkids. We booked online for 7pm and got there about 10 till 7. It was easy to get in. No waiting inside and no traffic problems outside. On December 5th we were in the neighborhood and traffic was backed up everywhere. At least a mile in all directions.   Don't know what they did but they solved their traffic problems. read more

Really good experience. My family and I enjoyed watching the lights dance to the music as we rolled through the event. Definitely, will be coming back next year. read more

Once we arrived after 30 plus minutes of driving from Bellaire, then we waited another 30 in line. There were tons of cars so figured it must be awesome. I truly appreciate the effort someone has made to create this light show but to be honest in total it was about a 6/10. Maybe something to do once with the kids but doubt you'll be going back for a second time. Plus it wasn't exactly cheap at $40 for the car. read more

I do not write reviews, but this is insanity. We have been trapped in a line for over 3.5 hours with a 2 year old, and no way to get out. They put you into a line once we got inside where we have been sitting for another hour. The kids are losing it, and staff all look confused and not helping. Not having a way to get out, or warning of how long you will be trapped in this line is unacceptable. Worst Christmas experience. read more

We read amazing reviews from previous years but this year was a flop! We paid $40 but the lights were so disappointing! So many gaps & sparse areas, I don't mind spending money but for me this was worth $20 max! read more

We went last night got there 700p waited an hour in a line trapped!! Be advised know that you will be in line with no way out. For a light show of Led lights on poles. Way over priced!!! If you have young kids it's like sitting in a traffic jam and kids will start to go crazy!! My advise stay away!!! Horrible Christmas experience!! read more

It is blatantly obvious that tickets were oversold it is extremely dangerous with people that have health hazards like me and my son-in-law what would we do if we had a heart attack right now stuck in this no one could get to us people have come up side roads ditches almost hit us four times we were threatened by people cussing and threatening to beat people up we have been here for four hours with my almost three-year-old grandbaby this is no longer fun we are now stuck in y'all's Lane and I believe it's Lane 23 since its supposed to have 23 Lanes... the one police officer the job hired almost got ran over by people and they did not even stop. Had we read the reviews.. which of course we could not because there was good ones when we first bought these tickets I guess those were bought and paid for but now with all the reviews at the real deal there's no way I would have brought my granddaughter here.. I will be going to Google also Yelp Instagram Snapchat and any other forum I can think of to make people aware of this I do not care at all about going thru these lights. I feel extremely sick cuz we have not ate the porta potties are grossly disgusting there is no way that that is sanitized for covid-19... I think they have y'all going to sell tickets for a certain times you should actually cut back on your money with $35 a car y'all Banked it tonight and put people's lives in danger shame shame on you.. I usually do not leave bad reviews cuz I believe small businesses need to try to make it with everything going on in the world but it's obvious you all do not care about the safety of the public.. it's obvious it's more about the old mighty dollar read more

We found out about the Lightshow through our schools fundraiser and bought the tickets to support!! Our kids (ages 13-21) were so excited about this, we used them the same night! Definitely worth it and fun for kids of all ages! Thanks for bringing a safe and memorable holiday experience to 2020!! read more

It was fun but the employees were extremely rude. Not very "in the holiday spirit" of them.

This place is poorly ran and organized on the weekends. The roads around it get completely shut down due to the traffic it's causing. I wasn't even attending and I was stuck in traffic for an unreasonable amount of time just trying to get home. It's a 15 minute drive through you wait 3 hours to see. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! read more

4 hours waiting, 2 of those in a line crowded space with no way to exit, got at 9:10 pm, left at 1:20 am. It kills any holiday spirit.

What an amazing experience! My family had a blast, even my 15yo son thought it was awesome!

It's the most wonderful time of the year ... and Rudolph's Lightshow just made it better!!! We drove through with our grandsons, and we were all totally enchanted. From the dancing reindeer to the different singing faces, to the enormous lite trees ... it is all delightful!! Even after going through twice, I know there is more to take in. We will definitely be going back ... a number of times. Thank you for bringing some joy to a year that has been a challenge for all. read more

We had soooo much fun! The show was amazing! Love all the songs where synced with the lights! 15 minutes was well worth the wait!

After our initial visit to Rudolph light show I reached out to the owner who was more than apologetic about our bad experience and he assured me changes had been made to make the experience the joy that it was meant to be. He went above and beyond to make it up to our family. The customer service is amazing! read more

Perfect timing since Covid has prevented limited interaction. The music synced with the lights makes for a entertaining light show. Buy your ticket online and arrive as soon as it gets dark and there is hardly any wait. read more

Excellent drive thru synced show. Worth the wait. So cool.
