Magic of Lights – Drive-Through Holiday Lights at Viking Lakes (Eagan, MN)

December 11, 2025 - December 17, 2025

Pile everyone into the car and head to Magic of Lights at Viking Lakes in Eagan, Minnesota—a drive-through holiday lights experience that stretches for more than a mile with glowing tunnels, animated displays, and larger-than-life holiday scenes.

From sparkling Holiday Barbie™ displays to a supersized Bigfoot® monster truck and even life-sized dinosaurs in a “Prehistoric Christmas” theme, Magic of Lights is built for wide eyes and plenty of “did you see that?!” moments. You enjoy it all from the comfort of your vehicle, making it an easy, family-friendly outing on chilly winter nights.

Typical operating hours run evenings from 5:30 p.m. into the night, with later closing times on Fridays and Saturdays. Dates and times vary by year, so it’s always best to confirm the current schedule before you go.

Enjoy your winter traditions in the Twin Cities, then spend your summers someplace quieter. Deer Lake Farmstead gives Twin Cities residents a peaceful seasonal home base in lake country—about 105 miles north of Minneapolis, near Malmo and Mille Lacs Lake.

If you love making memories at Magic of Lights each winter, imagine having a relaxed, seasonal lake place to escape to all summer long.

Deer Lake Farmstead is a small, family-owned seasonal park-model and RV community on the south shore of non-motorized Deer Lake, less than a mile from Malmo Bay on Mille Lacs Lake and under a two-hour drive from Minneapolis. With only 19 extra-large seasonal sites, it’s designed for quiet, grown-up lake time—not a noisy, turn-over-every-night campground.
