Santa’s Speedway drive-thru in Irwindale lets you celebrate the sights and sounds of the season from your own vehicle. The Irwindale Speedway is being transformed into a magical display of lights and attractions including a record setting Christmas Tree of lights towering over 110 feet.

Highlights Include:

  • Record Setting 110’ Tall Tree of Lights Constructed with over 12 miles of lights and cabling. With over 100,000 programmable LED lights, this Christmas tradition will surely grab Santa’s attention this Holiday Season!

  • Santa’s Village Drive down a real-life dragstrip and get a peek into the world of Santa’s village. All the elves are hard at work inside their cottages as guests watch animated decorating and Christmas preparation happen right before their eyes!

  • Giant Sized Holiday Treats Turn the corner on the backside of turn 1/2 to see a land filled with “Christmas Sweets” including oversized candy, ice cream trucks and trees made of candy. A collection of 20ft tall, illuminated lollipops will create a tasty backdrop to everyone’s imagination

  • Christmas Under the Sea Rounding the corner of the track, guests will be looking over a massive 700ft long ocean of lights filled with nautical themed décor including a glistening boat of lights.

  • Camping Christmas Land As guests get the thrill of a lifetime driving on an actual Nascar track, they will drive past a “Camping Christmas” where RV enthusiasts have camped out and made a vacation Christmas of their own. Be immersed in an all-American campground experience decorated for the holidays.

  • Christmas Wonderland As guests pass ‘the field’ for the first time, they will have one of the best views of the entire experience looking over Southern California’s most spectacular Christmas wonderland.

  • PLUS the kids will enjoy a fun interactive scavenger hunt along the way.

Who’s behind Santa’s Speedway? From making all things bright and merry at places like The Grove, Universal Studios and Warner Brothers, Mobile Illuminations, founded by Jason Zdenek, creates these magical light-filled experiences for Angelenos to enjoy and share with their friends and family. Jason started the company after a studio tour that left him knowing he could have a positive impact by creating intricate and breathtaking christmas lighting displays. That passion has evolved into Mobile Illuminations, and will be driving the biggest light display in MI history.
