uring the holidays, visitors to The Shops at Wiregrass can enjoy a free holiday spectacle. Each evening through Dec. 31, on the hour between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., the shopping mall offers a light and sound show that features a 55-foot Christmas tree, a quarter-million lights and synchronized music. The attraction also features “snow” flurries which appeal especially to children from Florida that rarely, if ever, experience the real thing. The Shops at Wiregrass is located at 28211 Paseo Drive in Wesley Chapel.
Spectators display their delight as “snow” flurries swirl during the Symphony in Lights display at the Shops at Wiregrass. Nadia Cohen, 6, of Tampa, lower right, enjoyed herself along with her mother, Justine Cohen and her grandparents, Theresa and Jack Cohen, also of Tampa. FRED BELLET/PHOTOS
Lucas Smith, right, did not really understand last year what was going on at the Symphony in Lights because he was too young, said his dad, Larry Smith, of Wesley Chapel. The little boy had a much better appreciation this year. The two attended the Symphony in Lights show, which features 250,000 lights.
