Winterfest of Lights in Ocean City

Celebrate the season at Northside Park and all over Ocean City.

The famous Winterfest of Lights is the centerpiece of Holiday Decorations at the beach. While the town may boast of 1,000,000 (or more) lights, the main attraction is definitely NorthSide Park. The park is transformed into a holiday wonderland fantasy of lights, sound and motion. The sound is the music playing favorite Christmas Carols – such as the Twelve Days of Christmas as the (boardwalk) tram carries you and your family along the park’s path decorated with large light displays depicting each of those 12 days. That is just one portion of the mile-long display featuring (literally) hundreds of lighted displays, many with animation. This is a real treat for young and old alike.

The above hotels map is centered about midway along the Ocean City Boardwalk. That location is the central point, the focal point you might say, of where you may choose to stay. The hotels along the Boardwalk are more pricey than those further away. However, chances are, the convenience of being able to walk to (just about) everything can make up the difference.

The town of ocean City is to be commended for all it does to attract and maintain visitors throughout the year – and not just the summer (touristy) months.
