Come with us to the River of Lights. We have limited tickets available based on the headcount we have been collecting over the last couple of weeks.

Meet at the Bio Park entrance *before* 7pm (our entry to the river of lights begins at 7pm, but you can enter any time between 7 and 8). The address of the park is: \ \ [2601 Central Ave. SW, Albuquerque, NM 87104](https://maps.app.goo.gl/xzD448CKazGXVj7F9). \ \ You can park there, but it gets pretty busy and you often have to park in a dirt lot and walk a little bit. You can also take advantage of Park and Ride below. It will be cold! We will be walking around outside, so please dress accordingly. \ \ Some additional information about park and ride: * Take advantage of our FREE Park & Ride located at the ABQ BioPark Zoo (903 Tenth St. SW, Albuquerque, NM 87102). * When heading to Park & Ride, avoid the traffic and take I-40 to 12th Street or I-25 to Lead Ave., then travel to the ABQ BioPark Zoo. * There is no need to park in the neighborhood or pay for parking at other non-River of Lights businesses.
