An Icicle Tunnel, Polar Bears and an Ice Waterfall Are Coming to CHS Field

One of the most popular holiday light events in Minnesota is coming back for another year, but with a new twist. We're talking about the GLOW Holiday Festival that's hosted at the St. Paul Saint's CHS Field.

Don't worry, if you've been before, some favorites will be back, but there's going to be a bunch of new displays and a new interactive experience.

New Arctic Adventure at GLOW Holiday Festival

The new twist is called Arctic Adventure. In the press release they said there's going to be new displays like "an illuminated icicle tunnel, polar bears, Arctic wolves, an Arctic Igloo, fire pits and a spectacular new Ice Waterfall."

Like I said earlier, some favorites will be back, though, like the GLOW Spectacular light show (which happens every 20 minutes), the Giant Snowy Slide, and the zip line.

And on top of all of that, there's a cool new interactive experience called Wand-er Land Corral.

New Wand-er Land Corral at GLOW Holiday Festival

Wand-er Land Corral is a 60-by-40-foot interactive activation where kids (and adults) can grab a 'wand' that they'll use to bring the activation to life.

With a simple tap, guests can activate six dazzling light displays throughout the area, including an illuminated tree, shimmering icicles and light-up drums that respond to their touch.

These all sound like great additions to one of the top holiday light attractions in the state. It changes it up just a bit but keeps the favorites, which I appreciate.
