Season of Lights – Polar Express in the Park
Step aboard the magic of the Season of Lights – Polar Express in the Park, where holiday wonder comes to life in the heart of Wamego! This beloved community event transforms the park into a twinkling winter village filled with festive lights, joyful music, and the timeless story of The Polar Express.
Families can enjoy train rides, photos with Santa, horse-drawn carriage rides, caroling, and a cozy stop for hot cocoa and cookies in the Historical Museum. Children can visit Mrs. Claus for story time, explore craft stations at the library, write a letter to santa and deliver it to the Polar Express Post Office at the Columbian Theatre and experience the enchantment of the holiday season through every corner of the park.
Whether you come to take in the lights, share laughter with loved ones, or simply "believe" in the magic of Christmas, Season of Lights – Polar Express in the Park is a night that reminds us all that the bell still rings for those who truly believe.
Behind the scenes, the true magic-makers are our incredible City of Wamego Parks and Recreation team. Their hard work, creativity, and dedication bring the PARK to life — from every glowing light strand to each joyful detail that makes visitors feel like they've stepped right into the pages of a Christmas story. This event is as much a celebration of their commitment to our community as it is of the holiday season itself.
