Prices are $15 on Thursdays, $20 on Fridays, and $25 on Saturdays and Sundays. Bring $10 in cash for parking. Children under two years old get in for free! More info here.
Christmas Balls of Sunset Hills
This Greensboro tradition is more than what it seems. Every year, residents of the Sunset Hills neighborhood string Christmas Balls onto tree-top canopies for a unique experience. Stay in the car and listen to Christmas tunes as you cruise through, or grab a thermos of hot chocolate to hold as you stroll through their streets. This event is free; they just ask for a canned food donation at the center of the community
Winter Wonderlights at Greensboro Science Center
Now through January 1, enter into this impressive display that allows guests to sing and dance their way through. This year, they will have 12 themed zones throughout the center’s zoo, which include starry night, snowball surprise, and dancing fountains. Come to meet Santa and ride the carousel to complete the experience. Tickets for Monday through Thursday on weeks before Christmas cost $16. Admission for members on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and any day on Christmas week costs $20. Nonmembers will pay $25 on those days. Children under 2 are free. Get your tickets here!
Tanglewood Festival of Lights in Winston-Salem
