Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park is host to a variety of events throughout the year. Events are added throughout the year so there is always a reason to visit Gilroy Gardens month after month.

Holiday Lights™

Of all of our special events, Gilroy Gardens Holiday Lights™ is our most popular. Every year during the holiday season we decorate the Park with millions of lights and beautiful holiday decorations. There is also a delicious holiday feast complete with turkey, dressing and all the trimmings. In 2009, we added an exciting new feature! Nights of Fire: Laser Light & Fireworks Spectacular...15 minutes of lasers, lights and fireworks all dancing to the beat of a scintillating holiday soundtrack!
