Winter Magic KC light show is an experience that just has to be on your holiday to-do list this year!
It’s the LONGEST animated light tunnel in the Midwest, so you don’t want to miss it.
What Did We Think When We Went?
Wow! Being invited to this spectacular light show was just wow.
Which is exactly what my three-year-old daughter said the entire time we were there.
What makes winter magic so great aside from the lights is tuning into Christmas music on the radio while you drive through this experience.
It makes for a fun and safe event your family can enjoy together.
