Y’all ready for this? It’s that time of year again in DFW: sweater weather is questionable, the scent of peppermint is in the air and Christmas lights. Everywhere.
The Metroplex goes full-on Griswold during the holidays and frankly… It’s glorious! We’re talking neighborhoods and businesses so lit-up they could be seen from space. It’s basically a winter wonderland on steroids.
Here’s a quick rundown of some must-sees… are your retinas up for the challenge?
● Highland Park: You know that friend who always goes overboard with birthday decorations? Highland Park is that friend. Bring sunglasses.

● Interlochen: Want something a little more chill? Interlochen offers a more low-key vibe, but still plenty of twinkle. Think of it as the cozy sweater to Highland Park’s sequined jumpsuit.

● Prairie Lights: If you’re bringing the whole crew, Prairie Lights is your jam. It’s like a holiday amusement park with millions of lights and enough rides to make you dizzy.

● Gaylord Texan: Winter Wonderland: Basically a luxury resort that decided to cosplay as Santa’s workshop. Expect stunning decorations, ice skating and festive activities for all ages.

● Christmas at the Texas Motor Speedway: This one’s for the “Christmas spirit, but make it car-based” crowd. Buckle up for a dazzling display of lights, all from the comfort of your own vehicle and prepare to meet Santa Claus!

● Unique Options: Feeling fancy? Hop on a Christmas Light Trolley Tour or splurge on a Christmas Light Limo Tour. You can be chauffeured around like royalty while sipping hot cocoa and judging people’s light displays. Because, let’s be honest, that’s half the fun, right? There are several options out there to choose from!
So there you have it… Your guide to navigating the local Christmas light scene. Remember, the most important thing is to find what sparks your holiday spirit!
