Daytona Beach, FL-During this year’s holiday season, the “World Center of Racing,” the largest lighted sports facility in North America, will transform into a holiday spectacle with the Magic of Lights drive-through holiday lights experience at Daytona International Speedway.

Daytona International Speedway is among seven cities that will host the FunGuys Events’ all-new 1.5-mile long Magic of Lights display this coming holiday season. Other iconic venues include Auto Club Speedway, Fontana California (Los Angeles), Jones Beach State Park, Wantagh New York (NYC), Gateway Motorsports Park, Madison Illinois (St. Louis), Victory Park Ohio, North Ridgeville Ohio (Cleveland), Castrol Raceway, Edmonton Alberta and Wesley Clover Parks, Ottawa Ontario.

FunGuys Events also revealed that Magic of Lights will feature all-new lights displays including new original designs and animations created especially for each of the world-class venues hosting the event. Magic of Lights’ own team of artists and fabricators have built a stunning set of new shows using the latest LED and digital animation technologies.

Beginning Nov. 17 and running every day through the holidays from dusk to 10 p.m., guests will be able to enjoy a family holiday drive-through experience at Daytona International Speedway. The experience will include a drive behind the Ticket and Tours Building, through the world’s only motorsports stadium and conclude in the Midway display area outside the facility. Additional information about the route, including the entrance point, will be provided at a later date.

“Magic of Lights is going to be a great addition to our already busy event calendar and will provide a wonderful new family holiday tradition for the local community,” Daytona International Speedway President Chip Wile said. “The event provides an iconic setting to celebrate the holiday season and gives back to all of us here in Central Florida through its charitable mission.”

For oversized vehicles such as limousines or 15-passenger vans, tickets will be $50 per vehicle at the gate and $40 per vehicle in advance. Tour buses will not be permitted. A special “Dash Pass” ticket that provides front-of-the-line admission will be available for $40 for cars in advance, $45 at the gate. For oversized vehicles, the “Dash Pass” is available for $60 in advance and $65 at the gate.

Advance tickets are on sale now with special $17 “Early-Bird” pricing available for cars only. A portion of the proceeds from the Magic of Lights at Daytona International Speedway will benefit the Florida Hospital Foundation.
