A CHRISTMAS LIGHT AND SOUND EXPERIENCE

A CHRISTMAS LIGHT & SOUND EXPERIENCE

DECEMBER 5 – 21, 2024

THE GROVE at LIVE OAKS COMMUNITY CHURCH

This event is held at The Grove at our Woodridge Campus. The Grove is only accessible from Woodridge Drive (behind Walmart).

GATES OPEN AT 6 PM | SHOW BEGINS AT 7 PM

IMPORTANT UPDATE

We anticipate that some of our presentations will sell out. If you are unable to secure a parking pass online, you can come anyway at 6:45 and see if there is room due to no-shows. We will do our best to make room for you. You can always park your car at Walmart or in the east lot of LOCC and walk into The Grove with your own chairs, or sit on chairs that we provide in a dedicated, chairs-only viewing area.

This special event is a one-of-a-kind Christmas light and sound experience presented by Live Oaks Community Church in The Villages, Florida. Join us December 5-21 (excluding Sundays) at our convenient outdoor venue called The Grove. Visitors will enjoy this 50-minute show from the comfort of their car or golf cart while watching on our Jumbotron! That’s right folks… A JUMBOTRON! Bring a chair and sit by your vehicle, if you prefer. Enjoy watching the palms, oaks, and other objects come to life in this amazing Christmas spectacular!

The show tells the nativity story from the Gospel of Luke, narrated by award-winning musician Steve Green. Film clips will make the story come alive on the big screen while the retelling will be interspersed with favorite Christmas music, ending with a candlelight singing of Silent Night. The music will be synchronized with an immersive light show experience. One more thing – it will snow in The Villages, Florida!

A free parking pass is required and should be reserved for each vehicle. Reserve only one parking pass per vehicle – NOT per person. Please specify whether you will arrive in a car or a golf cart. You can reserve up to 10 parking passes, but please keep in mind that our space is limited. Enjoy free popcorn, cookies, cider, and water before the show, and take advantage of our festive photo booth. This event is an excellent way to get into the Christmas spirit and celebrate the real reason for the season – the birthday of Jesus.
