North Park Holiday Laser Show Returning For A Third Year

McCANDLESS, PA — Allegheny County's holiday drive-in laser show will be back for a third year. The charitable event, which raises money for the Kane Foundation, returns to the North Park Swimming Pool parking lot on South Ridge Drive on Dec. 9.

The synchronized light show allows families to enjoy the show, and the holiday music soundtrack, from their own vehicle.

“There are so many holiday traditions in our community that families embrace each year, and we’re thrilled to see so many residents embrace the drive-in laser show,” county Executive Rich Fitzgerald said in announcing the event's return.

Visitors can choose from three session times Sunday through Thursday (6 p.m., 7:30 p.m. and 9 p.m.) or four weekend session times or four weekend session times on Friday and Saturday (6 PM, 7:30 PM, 9 PM and 10:30 PM). Each session accommodates 180 cars.

Tickets are $20 per vehicle Sunday through Thursday and $25 per vehicle for Friday and Saturday shows.

Because space is limited and tickets can sell out, attendees should arrive 30-45 minutes before their time slot. When arriving, they will need to show the QR code provided at the time of purchase – which can be shown on a smart phone or printed and brought to the event.

Vehicles will be directed from the entrance and will be directed to tune in 87.9 FM on their radio to hear the show. No commercial vehicles, including school buses, minibuses, limos, etc. are allowed at the event.

No concessions will be available on site, but visitors are welcome to bring snacks to to enjoy inside or outside of their vehicle.
