Trash Pandas to debut new Christmas light show this Friday

MADISON – The kick off for the Rocket City Trash Pandas’ new light show inside Toyota Field is set for this Friday.

This year’s show is a different from the drive-through light display featured in the stadium’s parking lot for years. This year, the holiday attraction is a spectacular walk-through experience filled with dazzling displays, festive food and drinks, and family- friendly fun. Running from Nov 21 through Dec, 28, organizers say the ballpark will shine brighter than ever before.

“This year’s Christmas Light Show will be better than anything we’ve done before at Toyota Field,” said Garrett Fahrmann, General Manager of the Rocket City Trash Pandas. “By moving the experience inside the ballpark, fans will be surrounded by nearly a million lights, interactive displays, and holiday activities that make this another oneof- a-kind Trash Pandas event.”

Guests will enjoy 3D walkthrough displays of ornaments, snowmen, trees, spheres, and more, along with GOBO floor projectors casting colorful holiday effects. Multiple lighted walking paths will feature sparkling trees, snowflakes, and candy canes, leading to a massive 30-by-30-foot interactive 3D dance floor. Every 20 minutes, the Toyota Field infield will come alive with a synchronized light show, while a stunning 50-foot tree with shooting snowflakes will illuminate the outfield.

In addition to the lights, families can enjoy holiday traditions including fire pits, hot beverages, festive food and drinks, character appearances, local vendor booths, themed activities, and visits with Santa Claus and holiday characters. Kids 12 & under will receive free admission, making the event an accessible family tradition for all.

Guests can elevate their visit with a private Igloo Experience — a cozy, exclusive way to enjoy the sights, sounds, and spirit of the season in comfort and style. Each Igloo reservation includes a 90-minute private session for up to six guests, complete with premium holiday treats and hot chocolate.

The Junkyard Team Store will also be open for holiday shopping. Tickets are date-specific this year and must be purchased for the night you plan to attend. Fans are encouraged to buy early, as select nights may sell out.
