It’s time to get into the Holiday spirit but in a safe and conscious environment. Let It Shine is just that — a brand new holiday drive-thru light show that’s coming to Northbrook, IL on November 15th. It’s like every music festival ever but except for heart-pumping EDM, it’s a beautiful medley of “Let It Snow” and Mariah Carey’s Christmas album as you wistfully parade through the arches of LED lights.
The events page for the company describes it as such:
“Experience a touchless & socially safe family tradition this holiday season! ‘Let It Shine’ is a brand new curated drive thru light show in Chicago’s North Shore. Guests will be immersed into a symphony of sight and sound in a wonderland of displays, synchronized to holiday classics from the comfort of their own car. This new, fun and socially safe experience will create lasting memories for all ages.”

In these times of COVID-19, companies and consumers have brainstormed every possible way to provide safe enjoyable events such as Let It Shine. The organizer’s co-founder Glen Gaode said he took his kids to a show similar to Let It Shine and instantly wondered why there isn’t one similar in Chicago. We applaud you Mr. Gaode because even without the threat of a pandemic we love distancing from strangers in our cars too.
The event will be open every weekday from 4:30 PM to 10 PM and until 11 PM on the weekends and will be open every single day except for Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Tickets are available by time slot through the website. They range in price from $29.99 on weekdays and $39.99 on weekends per car with a “fast pass” option to bypass the long line. Think about packing an entire family of six into your Jeep Wrangler and passing through the lights for the low price of $8 per person. That’s insane and extremely affordable.

This comes a few other Chicago holiday favorites have announced they will be canceled due to COVID-19—namely the Christkindlmarket Market has already been axed, while it’s likely that Navy Pier’s famous Winter Wonderfest will be as well, seeing that the pier is closed through at least the rest of 2020. It’s up to events like Let It Shine to provide safe, distanced, holiday options for families to partake in.
