Press release


There are even more days to get into the holiday spirit this season at America’s First Amusement Park! Lake Compounce has added three additional days to its Holiday Lights calendar for even more time for families to join in the joy.

The park will now be open daily from December 20 through December 31 excluding Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The timeless holiday tradition features more than 500,000 lights, meet and greets with Santa, a variety of family friendly rides, CT’s Tallest Christmas Tree, festive foods and more.

Plus, the celebration continues all weekend as the park partners with PepsiCo. to encourage guests to Stuff the Pepsi Truck with toys from Dec. 13 through Dec. 15. The toys will be donated directly to the Boys and Girls Club of Bristol. Guests that bring an unwrapped toy valued at $10 or more will receive a free ticket to visit the park any one day during the summer 2025 season. Donations will be collected at the Pepsi Truck located near the Lake Compounce mural.
