One of Great Bend's holiday traditions is ready to roll once again.
For the seventh consecutive year, the Dolly Trolley Holiday Lights Tours will offer residents and visitors a festive way to experience the magic of the season. Thanks to the generosity of local businesses and individual sponsors, the tours remain free to the public.
For the fifth consecutive year, riders can conveniently reserve their seats online.
The hour-long tours depart from and return to Santas Around The World, 1223 Main Street in downtown Great Bend, which is a different location from previous seasons. Before embarking on their holiday adventure, riders can purchase seasonal cookies from members of Rosewood AKTION Club.
Once aboard, passengers will enjoy front-row views of Great Bend's dazzling holiday displays, including the popular Trail of Lights, while taking in the sights, sounds, and spirit of the season from the comfort of Dolly Trolley.
Reservations can be made online at santasaroundtheworld.com/dolly-trolley or through Eventbrite, https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dolly-trolley-holiday-lights-tour-2026-tickets-2003629084528?aff=ebdssbdestsearch. Tickets may also be reserved during regular business hours at Rosewood Bargain Barn, 1215 Main Street, Great Bend.
Seating is limited to eight guests per reservation.
The Holiday Lights Tour season begins with the 6 p.m. tour on Nov. 30 and continues through Dec. 30, with the final tour departing at 8 p.m. The Dolly Trolley does not operate on Sundays, Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day.
Guests who need to cancel a reservation are encouraged to do so through Eventbrite whenever possible. Cancellations may also be made by emailing info@rosewoodservices.com or by visiting Rosewood Bargain Barn. Prompt cancellations help make seats available for other families and visitors wishing to enjoy the holiday experience.
Dolly Trolley Holiday Lights Tours have become a cherished community tradition, providing thousands of riders over the years with a memorable way to celebrate the holiday season while showcasing Great Bend's festive light displays.
