Tinseltown Holiday Spectacular is a local holiday light display with a larger-than-life twinkling array of illuminated sculptures. This year it is located in the parking lot of the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA.
Leaving GFE at about 16:30, we took back roads to avoid the rush hour traffic. Our advance timed tickets were for 18:00-20:00, but we were allowed to enter earlier than 18:00.

Even at the most leisurely pace, we only needed an hour here at Tinseltown. That included Pat standing in a line to order a funnel cake, then standing in another looong line to receive the funnel cake! We also had a group photo taken with the Philadelphia Eagles Junior Cheerleaders!
The Eagles Junior Cheerleading routine includes one of the male official cheerleaders, James LeGette.
