We asked Tanganyika what they wanted their guests to know and this was their response:

We want guests to know that Safari of Lights is more than just Christmas lights. It’s an interactive display synced to music (you’ll tune your radio to a specific channel) that supports a good cause – right from the comfort of your car. Whether you’re young, or old, have a huge family, or are a pet parent, Safari of Lights is a place for you to sit back and remember what it’s like to be filled with holiday joy. It’s also a wonderful way to bring families together as it seems everyone is stuck behind screens and not participating in holiday traditions like we did as kids.

History of Safari Lights at Tangayika
- It started in 2001 as a fundraiser for their winter months. The winter months are the hardest financially because the park is closed to the public, so Safari of Lights is a way to help keep the animals warm and fed while providing a memorable experience for our local wildlife lovers.
