Queen Elizabeth the Second spoke of spreading kindness amongst all nations and people being the light in the world.

Christmas lights are one of the most enjoyable sights to see every year. Our family likes getting in the car after dinner and checking out our favorite displays and finding new ones.

A single-family or multiple ones get together to decorate their yards and share the holiday spirit. Below are some top ones around Atlanta and in surrounding counties. We found even more light displays that we’ll feature in another post. Holiday lights are a way to bring joy to your life so we hope you visit these neighborhoods!

The magic of social media is discovering events in the city you live in. World of Illumination is billed as “the World’s Largest Drive-Thru Animated Light Show” and it can kick off your holiday season with a bang. It’s better than virtual since you can actually be in it safely outside of cyberspace. We found about it through a friend’s Facebook post and immediately booked tickets because we knew it was going to take off in the Atlanta area. WOI takes over a theme park and brings hundreds of interactive displays with a million lights to you while you are safely seated in your car. No need to walk around or wait in lines to see the sights. World of Illumination has opened 3 separate locations in the United States in 2020.
