This year’s Winter Wander Trail of Lights is destined to be the most astonishing since its existence. Our team has been working diligently since the close of last year’s event to bring multiple new additions that will transform this year's Winter Wander Trail of Lights into the most spectacular winter “wanderland” in all of Virginia. Here’s a list of what’s new for 2024: 

  • Fireworks and a live drone light show on select nights (weather permitting, see details below).
  • Entertainment including live music and winged dancers (see details below).
  • Heron’s Nest:  A new display honoring the beautiful bird that calls Heritage Lake her home (see below).
  • Additional illuminations added to several pre-existing features, including Serenity Way, Sunkissed Meadow and Firefly Grove.
  • Four new artificial snow machines at Serenity Way and Starry Night Sky. 
  • Live music in the Enchantment District. 

We’ve been known for our lights, but now it’s time to showcase some action! The far east side of the Wander Grounds will feature our Enchantment District full of live music and attractions on select nights. Entertainment will be featured in a heated tent and the district will feature outdoor games, two additional fire pits and Frost and Fire Bar.
