Largest Immersive Light Show in New England is at This Maine Farm: Open Through March
Winter calls for tubing, sledding, skiing, and...LIGHT SHOWS.
Light shows often occur during winter months for two reasons. 1. It gets darker earlier. So more time to display the show (not just at 10 PM). 2. IT IS (was) CHRISTMAS SEASON.
But that is the issue with the majority of light shows - they end after Christmas.
Not all light shows though...
Winter Wonders at Sandy Hill Farm in Elliot, Maine.
According to the Sandy Hill Farm website, the light display in Elliot, ME is the largest in New England.
The farm boasts about displaying over 2 MILLION lights.
And this unique experience is super immersive. Instead of watching colorful lights glow up a Santa Clause in the cold, Sandy Hill's experience makes you feel like you are elsewhere.
Like in a field of sunflowers...
The Winter Wonders light show at Sandy Hill Farm is roughly a one-mile loop that winds through 14 acres.
It takes about an hour to walk through the entire experience, but you will be entertained with glowing light displays for every minute of that hour's walk.
