Christmas Lights & Activities Near Ocala

[tarheelmjfan]

DH will be working in Ocala for the majority of December. We'll be there for at least three weeks with Sundays & most evenings off. While we're there, I'd like to see as many free or reasonably priced Christmas lights/events as we have time for. We're willing to drive 30 to 45 minutes each way, when we have an early evening & 2 hrs. or so each way on Sundays. We're fine with driving to the Disney area, but we don't want to pay Disney park or party prices for a limited time daytrip. All suggestions within that radius are welcome.

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you know, if it's necessary to buy tickets in advance? We probably won't know until the day before or same day, when we'll be able to go.

There’s a bunch of holiday activities going on this month. Here’s a really good list for Lake and Sumter counties which are next to Ocala: https://fun4lakekids.com/Whats-Happening/Holiday-Events/

I’m glad I saw this as I forgot the boat parade is tomorrow.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to getting up there to see some of it.
