Went Christmas Eve. Worst idea ever. We got there around 7pm and the main parking area was packed. We were diverted to baseball stadium parking. Not too bad of a walk (about 15 minutes), and the parking was free here as well, which was nice. The lights are quite boring. I think this caters to very young children. I wouldn't consider this a fun first date either (nothing magical about this. Esp with a 1000 strollers running you over).
