Dazzling Christmas LightDisplays

Every holiday season, Christmas lights are often the first decorations to go up and the last to come down. No matter where you go, you see them everywhere – hanging from trees, on the roofs of houses, office buildings, and filling the city streets. Ultimately, what is Christmas without Christmas lights?

Driving around and looking at Christmas lights is a timeless Christmas tradition. This year, Central Florida is going all-out, featuring giant displays and opening more drivethrough experiences than ever before. We have compiled a list of the must- see light displays right in your backyard!
