Drive-thru events have become a popular way to enjoy our festive times of year, especially the past several months.

It’s hosted by Fort Boonesborough State Park and it’s a unique way to spend an evening in October. This is a popular campground for its Halloween festivities, but you can also get in on the fun by attending the drive-thru event as a guest.

Fort Boonesborough State Park is a fascinating park and campground southeast of Lexington.

It's a popular spot for campers and history buffs, but also those looking for access to the Kentucky River. It's an all-around great destination for families, and fall may be the ideal time to visit.
As a fort that dates back to Daniel Boone and the 18th century, it already has a haunting atmosphere, especially on a grey, fall day.

When you do visit the park, consider arriving earlier to walk around the fort and check out the property. It's open to visitors through the month of October.
The Halloween lights drive-thru begins October 9th and runs through October 24th, from 7pm to 10 pm.

This has long been a popular spot for campers who love to camp around Halloween, but you don't have to have a site to visit the lights.
