Enchant Is Giving Local Families 2,500 Free Youth Tickets at Las Vegas Ballpark

What Happened: How the Free Youth Ticket Offer Works

Enchant announced that it will provide 2,500 complimentary youth tickets for the 2026 season in Las Vegas. FOX5 Vegas reporter Tom Aizenberg laid out the rules in his Nov. 6 story. There are only a few, and they matter.

Dates: Friday, Nov. 20, and Wednesday, Dec. 9 only.
What you have to buy: At least one adult ticket for one of those two dates.
What you get: Up to two free youth tickets added to that order.
Limit: 2,500 tickets in total, while supplies last.
Where to get them: The Enchant website, enchantchristmas.com.

Do a little math and you can see how fast this could go. If every order takes two free tickets, the 2,500 tickets cover just 1,250 orders. We also could not find how the tickets are split between the two nights. So one date could run out before the other.

Nov. 20 is opening night for the season, so it may be the first to go. That is only our guess. Enchant has not said which night is more popular.

The event itself is bigger than the light maze. FOX5 lists a reimagined version of "The Great Search" light maze, an ice skating trail, a snow slide, seasonal food and drinks, and visits with Santa and Mrs. Claus. FOX5 also reported two new theme nights. Holiday Sing-A-Long is Sunday, Nov. 29. Storybook Night is Friday, Dec. 4, with readings and character visits from Heroes and Fairy Tales Las Vegas, plus support for childhood reading through Spread the Word Nevada, Storied Kids and Dolly Parton's Imagination Library.

Enchant is produced by Social House Entertainment. Michelle Sanders, the company's vice president of marketing, told FOX5, "Las Vegas has embraced Enchant year after year."

Why It Matters to Las Vegas Residents

A night out with kids adds up fast around the holidays. Enchant's Las Vegas page says tickets start at $27, and that prices change by visit date, entry time and demand. So two free tickets can mean real money for a local family.

How much? It depends on your night, and we could not find the exact price for Nov. 20 or Dec. 9. As a rough guide only, FOX5 reported July early pricing of $18 for children 4 to 12 and $22 for youth 13 to 17. That sale ended July 31. If you use $18 on the low end and the $27 starting price on the high end, two free tickets would save somewhere around $36 to $54. Your real savings could be different.

The deal helps some households more than others. One parent with two kids pays for one ticket and brings both kids at no ticket cost. Two parents with two kids pay for two adults and still get both kids free. A family with three kids would use the two free tickets and likely pay for the third child.

It is also worth comparing this to Enchant's regular Family Offer. The Las Vegas page describes that offer as two adult and two Junior general admission tickets at a discount, but it gives no price. If your family can only go on a different night, that may be your next best option. If Nov. 20 or Dec. 9 works, two free youth tickets are hard to beat.

Before you count on it, know what general admission covers. Enchant's Las Vegas page lists these items with general admission:

The Christmas light maze
A Santa visit
Live entertainment and caroling
A shopping village and photo spots
A light-up dance floor

Now for the extras. Ice skating, the snow slide, the S'mores Pit and parking are all add-ons. Enchant's page says children need their own add-on tickets for activities. So a free youth ticket gets a child in the gate, but it will not get that child on the ice. If your kids will beg for the snow slide, plan for that before you check out.

This offer also lands close to home for a big part of the valley. Las Vegas Ballpark sits in Downtown Summerlin, just off the 215 Beltway. For folks in Summerlin, Spring Valley, Enterprise, Mountains Edge and the rest of the southwest side, this is a local night out and not a trip across town.

The date choice matters too. Nov. 20 is a Friday, which is easier for many families. Dec. 9 is a Wednesday, so it is a school night for most kids. Plan for an earlier entry time on that one if bedtime is a big deal at your house.

Background and History

Enchant is in its sixth season at Las Vegas Ballpark, according to FOX5. The company calls its attraction the world's largest Christmas light maze. That is the company's own claim. The ballpark opened in 2019 as the home of the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators, and it now does double duty as a holiday spot once baseball season is over.

Free kids' tickets are not new here. In December 2023, Enchant and the Vegas Golden Knights Foundation gave away 10,000 Junior tickets for four nights at the ballpark, News 3 reported. Those tickets were for ages 3 to 17, with a limit of two per order, and minors had to come with an adult.

The next year, Enchant put a name on the idea. An October 2024 press release from the company announced Kids Light Up The Night, with 42,500 free tickets across several cities. Las Vegas had four dates that year: Nov. 24, Dec. 4, Dec. 10 and Dec. 11. The release did not say how many of those tickets went to Las Vegas.

In 2024, parents reserved the free kids' tickets online and could buy adult tickets for the same night. The tickets were first come, first served, which is close to how this year's offer reads.

So the 2026 version is smaller in one clear way. Las Vegas has two free nights this year, compared to four in 2024. And unlike the 2023 giveaway, this one spells out a paid adult ticket as part of the deal.

Tickets for the 2026 season have been on sale for a while. FOX5 reported that general sales began Sept. 8 at 10 a.m., after early access for Golden Ticket holders and email subscribers. Organizers also told FOX5 that capacity is limited and that popular nights are expected to sell out. Other 2026 special nights include Family Photo Night, Friendsgiving, Country Christmas with line dancing, Paws 'n' Claus for dogs, and Night of Honor for first responders and military.

What Happens Next

The first big date is Friday, Nov. 20. Enchant opens that night, and the first round of free youth tickets is good for that visit. The second date is Wednesday, Dec. 9. The season then runs through Sunday, Dec. 27.

We looked for several details and could not confirm them. Rather than guess, here is what we could not find as of Nov. 8:

Youth age range for this offer: NOT FOUND. FOX5's story does not define "youth," and Enchant's Las Vegas page does not define its Junior ticket.
Adult ticket price on Nov. 20 and Dec. 9: NOT FOUND. Enchant lists only a $27 starting price that changes by date, time and demand.
Nightly hours: NOT FOUND on the official pages we could open.
Parking price: NOT FOUND. Enchant lists parking as an add-on.
Free tickets left right now: NOT FOUND.
Promo code or checkout steps: NOT FOUND. FOX5 says only to buy through the Enchant website.

Age is the big one. FOX5's July story used the groups 13 to 17 for youth, 4 to 12 for children, and 0 to 3 for infants. The 2023 giveaway covered ages 3 to 17. Neither one tells us for sure how this year's free tickets work, so look at the labels on the ticket page before you pay.

The ballpark will not be the only thing going on that first weekend. Downtown Summerlin's Holiday Parade starts the same night, Nov. 20, at 6 p.m. It runs Fridays and Saturdays through Dec. 19, with no parade on Nov. 27. The Rock Rink opens Nov. 13 and runs through Jan. 18, 2027. Expect more cars around the area on those nights.

Theme nights are worth a look if the free dates do not fit. Enchant's page says theme nights are included with your admission ticket, though some may have special activities that need an add-on. Storybook Night on Dec. 4 falls on the second night of Henderson's WinterFest, so families on that side of the valley have a choice to make. Theme night dates for the rest of the season were not posted on the Enchant calendar page we checked, so look again before you plan around one.

One more note if you bought a Golden Ticket over the summer. Enchant says those cannot be scanned for admission, so holders still have to choose a visit date first. If you have one, pick your date soon. We could not confirm whether a Golden Ticket can be paired with the free youth offer, so ask Enchant's guest services at support@enchantchristmas.com before you count on it.

Ryan's Take

I talk with a lot of people who are thinking about moving to the southwest side or Summerlin. They ask about price, HOA dues and commutes, and they should. But they also want to know what living here feels like in a normal week. Things like this are a big part of the answer.

Enchant, the Rock Rink, the Holiday Parade and Aviators games all sit within a small part of Summerlin. A deal like this will not change what a home is worth, and I would never tell you it does. What it does show is how much of a place's daily life happens outside the front door. When you compare areas, look at what is close by in December, not just what the kitchen looks like in the photos.

My practical advice is simple. If those two dates work for you, do not wait. Limits like this one tend to reward the people who act early. And read every line before you pay, because the add-ons are where a cheap night stops being cheap.

What You Can Do

If you want in, here is a simple game plan:

Pick your night. Nov. 20 or Dec. 9. The free youth tickets only work on those two dates.
Go to the Enchant site. Start at enchantchristmas.com/las-vegas or the Las Vegas ticket calendar.
Add one adult ticket first. Then look for the free youth tickets. You can add up to two per order. A third child would likely need a paid ticket, but check at checkout.
Check the age labels. Enchant lists an infant admission, and FOX5's July story showed ages 0 to 3 as free. If your little one already gets in free, you may not need to use up a youth ticket.
Decide on add-ons. Parking, skating and the snow slide cost extra. Each child needs their own activity ticket. Enchant says guests with infant admission cannot buy activities because of age and height limits.
Be sure about your date. Enchant's page says it does not give full or partial refunds. You can change dates up to 24 hours before your visit for a per-ticket fee, unless you bought Visit Protection. Ticket price increases still apply. We could not confirm whether free youth tickets carry over to another night, so assume they may not.

When you go, know that you cannot enter before your arrival window, but you can still get in if you are running late. Bring layers, since you will be outdoors after dark. If you have older kids, talk about the add-ons on the way there and set a budget. It is much easier than having that talk at the snow slide.

Going with friends? The limit is per order, so each paying household should place its own order to get its own free youth tickets. Enchant says groups of up to 25 can buy online and larger groups use its party form. We could not confirm how the free youth offer works on a group order, so separate orders are the safer bet.

It also helps to see how Enchant stacks up against other holiday plans this season. Skate rentals at the Rock Rink are $22, and the Jupiter Express holiday train at Downtown Summerlin is $7. Lee Canyon lift tickets start as low as $9, and that price goes up after Nov. 10. WinterFest in Henderson costs nothing. Mix and match based on your budget and your calendar.

Want a free way to celebrate too? Henderson's WinterFest returns to Water Street Plaza on Dec. 3 and 4 at no cost. Skiers and snowboarders can also look at Lee Canyon's Nov. 20 opening, and Downtown Summerlin's holiday schedule pairs well with a night at the ballpark.
