Meadow Brook Hall’s Winter Wonder Lights
UPDATE Thursday, Dec. 10: Meadow Brook Hall’s Winter Wonder Lights has been cancelled for 2020. They have also cancelled Thursday night’s “Preview Evening.”
Here is the statement from Meadow Brook Estate:
“Meadow Brook Hall is deeply committed to the health and safety of our visitors and staff. To that end, in order to fully comply with Michigan’s current public health order that limits outdoor gatherings through Dec. 20, we regretfully have cancelled our dazzling new event for 2020.
Since the order came through--and was consequently extended--Meadow Brook worked closely with regional officials to explore options, but were unable to reach a solution. Meadow Brook wants to provide our visitors, staff and community with the best possible experience that exceeds all expectations—which is not possible under the present circumstances.
All ticket holders will be notified directly with any changes that may impact their visit. Those who have purchased tickets will receive a full refund. Those who have purchased memberships in October, November or December 2020 will have benefits extended through 2021.
Thank you for your patience as we continue to navigate these new and unprecedented challenges.
Meadow Brook Hall looks forward to launching both shows – the outdoor Winter Wonder Lights and indoor Holiday Walk in 2021.”
The Meadow Brook Hall’s Winter Wonder Lights located in Rochester will be open from December 11-30. Tickets can still be purchased in advance.
It is being hailed as Michigan’s most dazzling new outdoor event and holiday light show.
