WHERE SHOULD I PARK?

The best place to park is just east of Macy’s in the Promenade Shops at Centerra. Or park near the plaza at the Promenade Shops to have some fun, shop and grab a snack before you walk over to see the lights. Handicap accessible parking is located at the north end of the park, except for Winter Wonderlights Live Nights, where the parking lot is blocked for safety purposes. On live nights, handicap accessible entry is available directly across from Macy’s.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Chapungu Sculpture Park has paved walking paths with grassy open spaces. Closed-toe shoes are recommended. With Colorado’s ever-changing weather conditions, check the forecast before setting out for the park. Most nights, we recommend bringing a coat, winter hat, and gloves.

WHAT ARE THE KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WINTER WONDERLIGHTS LIVE NIGHTS AND EVERY OTHER NIGHT OF THE EVENT?

Winter Wonderlights Live Nights begin at 4:30pm and concluding at 9:00pm and feature ice sculpting demonstrations, live reindeer, vendors and live holiday performances interspersed with the holiday light show.

On every other night at Winter Wonderlights, the 1/2 hour-long musical light show runs continuously from 5:00PM – 9:00PM, but there are no vendors or live performances. These nights typically have smaller crowds, and every night features numerous selfie stations, photo-op spots, and our spectacular musical light show.

ARE THERE VENDORS AT WINTER WONDERLIGHTS?

Our Live Nights will include a variety of vendors. Enjoy food truck offerings, sweet treats and salty snacks, in addition to hot beverages, spiked drinks and cocktails. Shop our Holiday Market to find unique gift items and stocking stuffers amongst a variety of local vendors and small businesses. 

WHAT IS NEAR WINTER WONDERLIGHTS?

Due to Chapungu’s close proximity to the Promenade Shops, it’s within walking distance to grab dinner and enjoy a beverage or snack at one of their many restaurants or specialty shops adjacent to the Park. We also encourage you to visit the Promenade’s Main Plaza where you can skate the night away at the Ice Rink during the winter months.

ARE DOGS ALLOWED?
