Bentleyville USA — Attraction in Duluth

Bentleyville is a magical Christmas light show and a tradition we look forward to each year! The displays are beautiful, and there’s so much for kids to enjoy—free hot chocolate, popcorn, cookies, and even a free hat for every child who visits Santa. The light show is well done, with a fun mix of familiar favorites and new features each year. It’s festive, fun, and packed with holiday spirit.

That said, parking is a major drawback. It’s $10 per car, and the wait can be extremely long—we usually pick up dinner and eat in the car while we wait to get in. What’s most frustrating is being pushed to farther-out lots even when you can clearly see open spots nearby. This has been especially disappointing when traveling with someone who has handicap plates. Despite asking about visible open spaces in both regular and handicap lots, we’ve been told there are no spots and the cones stay in place—ultimately causing our guest to miss the experience due to the walk.

Overall, it’s a wonderful event, but I hope the parking situation—especially regarding accessibility—is reconsidered in the future. Still, it’s a special experience worth visiting, especially for families...

We toured the lights last Friday with all 4 of our kids. Our oldest son is currently on crutches. As we entered into Bentleyville one of the curtious volunteers offered my son a wheelchair for free to use. My son was so grateful he was able to enjoy the tour without worrying about crutching it the whole time. The lights were amazing! The free hot chocolate and cookies were delicious! I would definitely recommend this memorable tour of lights to everyone! Thankyou to all the wonderful Bentlyville volunteers for all the wonderful work they do....

This was the first time for some of our group to attend. For those of us who’ve gone before, we noticed it was more expanded than last time we were there.

It was very crowded. It took a while to get into the parking lot. Parking is $10 per car.

The lights were cool. A wide variety. We liked the characters walking around. The photo ops (swings, hearts, giant ornament, bell) were fun to stop at for photos.

We didn’t try the food. But you can roast marshmallows, eat cookies, and get cocoa. We only stepped into the gift shop...
