The five million lights are turned on at 5:00 each evening.  If you are there at the opening (and you should be), you can take part in the countdown to the lights turning on.

If you arrive at Bentleyville before 5:00, and don't want to wait outside, step into the gift shop.  It's open, warm, and full of Bentleyville Tour of Lights souvenirs!
