In partnership with Butler County Tourism & Convention Bureau, Shadrack’s Christmas Wonderland will be back for the second year at the Big Butler Fairgrounds this holiday season. The award-winning Christmas light and music extravaganza is unlike any other light show.

The kick off date is Friday, November 18th and goes through the holiday season ending on Sunday, January 8th. Hours are dusk to 10 p.m. nightly and will stay open later on the weekends.
Jack Cohen, President of Butler County Tourism & Convention Bureau was instrumental in bringing Shadrack’s Christmas Wonderland to western Pennsylvania. “I’m thrilled that families have the opportunity to create a new holiday tradition with Shadrack. It’s a great family event and I’m hopeful it will continue to light up Butler County for many more years to come.” said Cohen.
