Union City, Tenn.— Discovery Park of America, the museum and heritage park in Union City, Tennessee, is adding a walk-thru experience to its popular “Let it Glow” Christmas drive-thru light show for the 2021 holiday season. “Let it Glow” is a significant annual fundraiser for the 501(c)(3) non-profit.

Opening night on Friday, Nov. 12, 2021, will include a kick-off ceremony at 6:00 p.m. followed by a performance of holiday favorites by internationally acclaimed soprano Sabrina Warren and an ensemble from the Jackson Symphony.

Warren has performed throughout North America and Europe including as a guest artist with the Festival Durance Luberon in France, the Eutiner Festspiele and the Deutsche-Amerikan Musik Fest in Germany and the Differdange International Festival in Luxembourg. Warren was a District Winner and Eastern Region Finalist of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions in New York. She is assistant professor of vocal studies at Union University.

The Friday night opening event will be free for Discovery Park members and $5 admission for non-members.

Returning in 2021 is the popular drive-thru light show that allows cars to slowly drive around the 50-acre heritage park as they experience more than a million twinkling lights synced to the beats of popular Christmas songs. Guests get a unique look at a Titan Missile, the outside of the 199-foot-tall Discovery Center, a settlement of log cabins and more, all decorated for the holidays.

Entry to the “Let it Glow” walk-thru will take place through the park’s north gate, which will be transformed to the “North Pole Gate” during the seven-week fundraiser. The Japanese Garden, European Garden and Mill Ridge will all be transformed into a glowing winter wonderland with plenty of opportunities for taking photographs throughout the decorated grounds.
