With colder temperatures, early nights and the snowfall potentially on its way, the holiday season is quickly approaching. Several dazzling light shows across the Chicago area are helping to ring in the season, turning several of the region’s most known attractions into winter wonderlands. While Christmas is still more than a month away, some light shows have already started, with Lightscape at the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe kicking off yesterday. From ZooLights at Lincoln Park Zoo to Chicago’s Christmas Tree at Millennium Park, here are twinkling light shows that will spruce up the season in the area. Lightscape at Chicago Botanic Garden The Chicago Botanic Garden takes guests past pine trees draped with strings of lights, candle-lined pathways and a variety of other holiday light formations. A new exhibit called Starscape features a 130-foot-long tunnel decked with a series of over 700 shimmering handmade acrylic stars. Lightscape opened for the season Nov. 11 and will run until Jan. 8. Tickets range in price from $14 to $30. ZooLights at Lincoln Park Zoo ZooLights, one of Chicago’s most colorful holiday staples, is set to return to the spotlight at Lincoln Park Zoo. The longtime tradition will mark its 28th running Nov. 18, with a slate of attractions in store for visitors. A Ferris wheel, an expansive light tunnel and re-envisioned light shows are some of the event’s highlights, according to the zoo. ZooLights will run from 4:30 to 10 p.m. Nov. 18-23, 25-30, Dec. 2-14, 16-23, 26-31 and Jan. 1. Of the dates, tickets to the show will be free Nov. 21 and 28, as well as Dec. 5, 12, 19 and 26.

The tree will be illuminated Nov. 18 and remain lit throughout Jan. 8. The tree tallies as a long-time Chicago tradition, as this year’s will become the city’s 109th. Each year, the tree can be seen glistening near the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Washington Street. Shine Light Show Shine Light Show will let visitors catch synchronized holiday displays from the comfort of their cars. The show will feature a glistening tunnel of over one million LED lights paired to holiday music. The event will run Nov. 18 and end Jan. 1 at two locations: Northbrook and Schaumburg.

The Magnificent Mile Lights Festival Traditionally, around 200 trees along North Michigan Avenue have been illuminated to signal the kick-off of the holiday season in Chicago. The Magnificent Mile Lights Festival will ring in the holiday season with a parade and free, family-friendly celebrations along Michigan Avenue Nov. 19. The event will be capped with a display of fireworks. Illumination: Tree Lights at the Morton Arboretum From Nov. 19 through Jan. 7, the Morton Arboretum will spotlight holiday festivities through its annual Illumination light show. More than 50 acres of the arboretum’s trees will be decked out with collaborative displays of color, light and sound. Along the arboretum’s one-mile path, guests can tune into seasonal music, sit by a fire, roast marshmallows and take a snack or beverage to-go. The spectacle also will feature six new exhibitions, including a “re-imagined” finale that will take place in the arboretum’s new Grand Garden. The light show will be open each evening from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m., with the last entry at 8:30 p.m. Due to the holidays, the exhibit will be closed Nov. 21, 24 and 28, as well as Dec. 5, 12, 24 and 25.
