The Twin Cities’ most dazzling winter tradition is back and brighter than ever. The GLOW Holiday Festival returns to CHS Field in downtown St. Paul from Nov. 20, 2025, through Jan. 4, 2026, transforming the home of the St. Paul Saints into a twinkling wonderland of lights, laughter, and holiday cheer.
This year’s walk-through experience promises 1-million-plus of shimmering lights, larger-than-life displays, and an all-new Fairytale Castle—a storybook showstopper illuminated by more than 10,000 bulbs. Guests can also strike a pose in Santa’s Sleigh, take a spin on the Merry Carousel, and enjoy returning favorites like the GLOW Spectacular light show, the 120-foot-long Giant Snowy Slide, the 300-foot-long Vixen’s Zip Line, and the 60-foot-tall Tremendous Tree that dances to music every 20 minutes.

For cozy moments, visitors can warm up by the fire pits, sip festive drinks at Blitzen’s Lounge, or glide through the Enchanted Forest and Color Blossoms, each glowing with photo-worthy magic.
Early birds can snag 30% off select tickets through Oct. 21, before general sales open Oct. 22 at glowholiday.com/tickets.
Since launching in 2020, GLOW has seen 400,000 attendees and has raised more than $400,000 for local charities, donating $1 from every ticket to regional nonprofit partners—making this luminous celebration one that truly shines for the whole community.
