Many people put up lights on their house for the holiday season, but they are not the only ones.
There is no better time to get festive than with the holidays just around the corner. Going to see lights is a family friendly activity that will surely spread holiday cheer. Not only are there bright light displays but also music and other activities to enjoy.

Anheuser Busch Brewery
Walking tours just got a lot brighter at the brewery for the holidays. There are free walking tours throughout the winter season and people can learn the history of the brewery while enjoying some extra holiday cheer. There are also food stations, a s’mores station and a VIP holiday package that includes a buffet and exclusive access to buildings in the brewery, according to flovalleynews.com.
St. Louis Zoo
Everyone can enjoy their nature loving side with the Wild Lights at the St. Louis Zoo. Using over 500 thousand lights throughout the Zoo’s campus, the display makes wildlife exhibits much more interesting.
