This animated Shawnee show broadcasts its music on 100.1 FM with lights that move to the beat. A lighted train forms the central feature, and it first drew attention as an entrant in the Shawnee Rocks holiday light contest in 2020.
Best time to arrive. Sunset in Shawnee is around 4:58 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 5:28 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 23°F, so dress for standing around outside.
Make a night of it. This is stop 9 on our 9-stop Shawnee lights loop — about 91.5 miles and 256 minutes of driving in total.
