A favorite holiday tradition in our family is going to see Christmas lights. Enjoy this listing of various locations to see Christmas light displays this year.
**NOTE - Many families don't have their Christmas displays up during heavy wind and rain, especially those with inflatables.**
We've partnered with our Facebook fans as well as fans of the Living in Lynchburg and other Facebook groups to assemble this listing of area Christmas light displays.
We rely on community input, previous years' information, information shared in other Facebook groups, personal friends, and Lynchburg Macaroni Kid fans to keep you up-to-date. If you have additional information to share, please feel free to reach out to us!
There are MANY additional homes with beautiful lights throughout the Lynchburg area. We update local neighborhood holiday light display locations throughout the season as we receive information.
We also reach out to YOU: our subscribers, Facebook friends, and fans for information about lights in your neighborhoods. If you have or find an outstanding light display not in our list, reach out on the Lynchburg Macaroni Kid Facebook page or email us at sandyw@macaronikid.com and we'll be glad to add the display to our listing.

Holiday Light Displays Verified for 2023
Traditionally, the weekend after Thanksgiving is when most individuals and businesses light up for the holidays. However, in recent years, we've seen a shift to some individuals and businesses starting their holiday lights season earlier. We'll update throughout the holiday season, including dates when known!
We've partnered with our Facebook fans as well as fans of the Living in Lynchburg and other Facebook groups to assemble this listing.
*** This section is a work in progress! If you plan a big Christmas light display at your home or business, please reach out to us at sandyw@macaronikid.com or on our Facebook page to be included in this listing! ***
In addition to the individual houses noted below, here's a great short loop for the littles in mid-town Lynchburg:
From Fort Avenue, turn onto Long Meadows Drive, then turn left onto Pawnee Drive, follow until Pawnee runs into Sandusky Drive, follow Sandusky until it becomes Thomas Road, follow to intersection with Sussex Street, turn right onto Sussex Street, then left onto Perrymont Avenue, then turn right onto Fort Avenue. Each of these streets usually has 10-12 (or more) houses decorated and this is a short enough loop that even the little ones won't get tired of riding.
