For the third consecutive year, the public has the opportunity to take in the fun and merriment of the holiday season in Great Bend while riding aboard the Dolly Trolley. As with previous seasons, Dolly Trolley Holiday Lights Tours are free to the public, thanks to the generosity of local businesses and individual sponsors. Something different this year, however, is that there is a convenient online option to sign up for Dolly Trolley Holiday Lights Tours. 

People can sign up for tours by going to SantasAroundTheWorld.com/dolly-trolley, or search for the sign-up location at Eventbrite.com. Seating is limited to eight people per ticket order. As in the past, people can schedule trolley rides by going to Re-Perks Coffee Shop 1216 Main. 

Hour-long rides depart in front of Re-Perks Coffee Shop and they return to the same location. Re-Perks is offering hot beverages and cookies for $1.99 per person to Dolly Trolley riders before heading out on their excursion. Once on board the trolley for the tour, riders will have a spectacular window view as they experience the dazzling Trail of Lights and splendor of the holiday season in Great Bend this season. 

The Holiday Lights Tour schedule begins at 6 p.m. on Nov. 29 and runs through 8 p.m. on Jan. 7, 2023. The Trolley does not run on Sundays or Mondays through that period, nor does it run on Christmas Eve, Christmas, New Year’s Eve, or New Year’s Day. 

Once ordered, those needing to cancel their tickets are asked to do so using the Eventbrite app, or stop into Re-Perks to provide contact details for cancelation. Cancelations can also be done in person at Rosewood Bargain Barn, 1215 Main, during business hours. Canceling online will automatically provide seat availability for others to tour.

Dolly Trolley was donated two years ago to Rosewood Roots & Wings Foundation by benefactor Sheryl Cheely to bring new experiences to the Great Bend community. Access more information at SantasAroundTheWorld.com.
