Grab your coziest coat, holiday spirit and join Santa Clarita Transit on the annual Holiday Light Tour. This festive and family-friendly journey showcases some of the most magical and spectacular holiday light displays, which you can view comfortably on board the Santa Clarita Transit Trolley and other transit vehicles.

The tour lasts for approximately 45 minutes and allows passengers to view beautiful local displays of holiday cheer, while leaving the driving to Santa Clarita Transit. Tours will depart from the McBean Regional Transit Center, 24375 Valencia Blvd., Santa Clarita, CA 91355, on Friday, Dec. 13 through Sunday, Dec. 15, beginning at 6 p.m. with the last trip departing at 9 p.m.

Tickets can be purchased upon boarding for $3 per person, or free with the donation of toiletries, including toothbrushes, toothpaste, men’s deodorant, baby wipes, bar soap and disposable razors.

All ticket sales and toiletry items are donated to the Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry. Seats will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note, for safety purposes, the Holiday Light Tour does not visit Wakefield Court.

Since gazing upon brilliant holiday lights can work up an appetite, be sure to check out the food trucks for hot beverages and treats. Additionally, there will be multiple photo opportunities, including selfie-stations, all lit up and ready for your socials.

This year, the city of Santa Clarita is excited to share its Golden Ticket Giveaway for up to a year of free transit rides. The randomly-selected winner will receive a $365 TAP Card, which will allow for 365 free, local trips on the Santa Clarita Transit system.

To enter the raffle, please visit the Santa Clarita Information Booth at the Holiday Light Tour at the McBean Regional Transit Center. Up to 500 raffle tickets will be available each of the three nights of the Holiday Light Tour. Once all of the raffle tickets have been claimed, no further entries will be accepted. The winner will be drawn at random at 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 15 and will be notified via the contact information written on the winning raffle ticket.
