All Aboard the Fireflies Express!
The beloved Fireflies Express presented by Thermal Technologies returns to the lights in 2026!
The Express is for children 12 and under. One ride costs $5 per rider, and children under the age of 4 must be accompanied by an adult. Infants under one may ride for free but must ride with a paid adult.
Rides on the train will be limited each night as the train will operate under the same hours as the lights, 6-9 pm, and cars will be filled on a first come first serve basis. The Fireflies Express features one ADA accessible car.
