dallas christmas light tours

Kessler Park

South of Downtown lies the charming Kessler Park neighborhood in Oak Cliff. The lights are arranged annually by a group of volunteers; find five large, lit trees at the intersection of Colorado Boulevard and Lausanne Avenue and you know you're in the right spot. The Kessler Park neighborhood lights are even more beautiful backlit by the shimmering Dallas skyline.

Tall, Tall Trees

Galleria dallas.

Every good tour of lights includes a towering tree or two. At least once a year we'll hop out of the car for a look at the tree at the Galleria Dallas . At 95 feet, it has the distinction of being the world's tallest indoor Christmas tree. It's majestic from any angle, but even more so viewed while skating around on the mall's signature ice rink.

Klyde Warren Park

Downtown's Klyde Warren Park makes a statement with a brilliant tree adorned in multicolored lights and topped with a massive starburst. Oversized trees need oversized décor, and a few blocks south of the park the Omni Dallas Hotel features a display of several lacquered red ball ornaments. At 10 feet in diameter and 1,200 pounds apiece, they're placed on the hotel's lawn every year by a crane.

City Hall Plaza

Join the City of Dallas for the annual "Deck the Plaza City Hall Lights" event on December 1 from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Enjoy a full program with live entertainment on stage includes Dallas ISD’s Booker T Washington School for Performing and Visual Arts “Jazz Combo”, Molina High School Marching Band and live contemporary music band; Flame Foundation (flamenco dance); Navillera (Korean Dance); Grand Prairie Mariachi Azul; Devotio Moderna will play and sing Spanish language traditional holiday music and the Dallas Police Department choirs.

Families are invited to come and enjoy free fun activities including meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus, carriage rides, mini train rides, bounce houses, a City staff holiday tree decoration and exhibit, and much more! At 6:45 p.m. we flip the switch to lite the 50-foot-tall holiday tree for families to enjoy and take pictures.

Walk-Through Winter Wonderlands

Holiday at the arboretum.

In addition to thousands of twinkling lights in the trees, Holiday at the Arboretum presents the magnificent The 12 Days of Christmas outdoor exhibit. Twelve 25-foot Victorian-style gazebos depict scenes from the traditional carol, from Twelve Drummers Drumming to a Partridge in a Pear Tree. I guarantee you've never seen anything like it. You can't miss the 50-foot musical Christmas tree with more than 40,000 lights and the Christmas Village that features holiday performances by local musicians and artists. Other seasonal programming includes Santa visits and special treats. Reserve your tickets now for this prized Dallas tradition.

SNOWDAY Winter Pop-Up

A social media influencer's paradise, SNOWDAY's Wondrous Adventure at Galleria Dallas takes travelers through 11 holiday-themed rooms made to be unique photo backdrops. While not a traditional Christmas light display, you never know what you'll find around each corner at SNOWDAY.

Dallas Zoo Lights

Neighborhood lights will always have my heart, but my son loves the magic of massive, immersive lighting displays. After the animals head in for the evening, the Dallas Zoo transforms into a winter wonderland with over one million twinkling lights called Dallas Zoo Lights . Walk through realistic silk-covered lanterns in the shape of your favorite animals and enjoy a mesmerizing light show featuring over a million twinkling lights that adorn most of the zoo.

Drive Thru Experiences

Dallas bites & sights tours.

Gather some friends for one of Dallas by Chocolate's Christmas Lights tours through the Park Cities and Downtown Dallas this season. There are all ages and adult-only versions of the tour, during which you'll ride in a heated motorcoach and sample decadent desserts while gallivanting around town. Take in the holiday sights and tastes on the signature chocolate tour or a themed event, such as the "Tacos, Margaritas & Christmas Lights" tour.

Helicopter Christmas Light Tour

If you're looking for a more exhilarating experience, there is no better way to celebrate the holiday season in DFW than coming aboard their Turbine Polar Express! Explore miles of wonderful lights, decorations, massive Christmas trees, and exciting sights to behold from Santa’s very own altitude. Grab a friend and take flight now!

9 Best Holiday Light Displays in Dallas-Fort Worth

Everything's bigger and brighter in Texas when it comes to Christmas lights . Dallas-Fort Worth has several beautiful holiday displays, so grab a peppermint latte or some hot cocoa for the kids, load up the SUV, and enjoy the holiday events and lighting displays. Some displays offer refreshments, rides, and visits with Santa, while others go all out, even offering carriage rides.

Addison: Vitruvian Park Lights

Vitruvian Lights

Walk and wind through the 19-acre Vitruvian Park in Addison , where millions of sparkling LED lights are wrapped around more than 500 glittering trees to create this magical holiday wonderland. The lights are turned on November 25, 2022, and can be enjoyed all the way through January 1, 2023, every night from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Entrance to the park as well as parking are both free.

In addition to the lights, there are usually musical performances, gourmet food trucks, sweet treats, free photos with Santa, classic holiday characters, and an elf balloon artist.

Arlington: Interlochen Lights Display

One of the largest holiday light displays in North Texas comes to life when more than 200 Arlington neighbors dress up their homes and lawns with Christmas lights and an assortment of holiday-themed displays for the Interlochen Lights Display .

For the 2022 holiday season, you can drive through the illuminated neighborhood at no cost beginning December 16 until Christmas Day, from 6–11 p.m. each night. There is a route that all drivers must follow, with the only entrance at the intersection of West Randol Mill Road and Westwood Drive.

Arlington: Holiday in the Park at Six Flags Over Texas

Holiday in the Park celebrates the most wonderful time of the year at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. The park sparkles with more than a million twinkling lights and hosts a variety of holiday shows. Enjoy toasty campfires, delicious hot cocoa, a huge tree, Santa Land, and Santa Claus. The celebration usually runs from Nov. 25, 2022, until Jan. 1, 2023, on select nights. Your general admission into the park includes access to all of the holiday activities.

Dallas: Highland Park

 adrian valenzuela/Flickr

It's obvious that many of the residents in Highland Park hire professionals to do their decorating, and that makes it one of the best neighborhoods for viewing elaborate holiday lights in Dallas. The lights are available from late November through the holidays, and while you can drive through them in your own vehicle, you can make the journey extra festive by booking a carriage ride. Brazos Carriages and White Haven Carriages both offer horse-drawn sleigh rides through the neighborhood for a truly memorable experience.

Frisco: Christmas in the Square

Frisco Square

Christmas in the Square is a light show featuring more than 180,000 lights choreographed to holiday music. Visitors can drive, stroll, or ride in a horse-drawn carriage past the shops, restaurants, and amazing holiday displays around the square.

The same snow machines used by Disney create a winter wonderland on the sidewalks of Frisco Square. There are "snow flurries" every 15 minutes on Fridays and Saturdays throughout Christmas in the Square—even if it's 75 degrees outside. The Christmas in the Square Light Show is open nightly during the festival, which runs from Nov. 19, 2022, until Jan. 3, 2023.

Fort Worth: Sundance Square Parade of Lights

Held each year in downtown Fort Worth, the Sundance Square Parade of Lights features more than 100 illuminated entries, cowboy Santas, marching bands, and antique cars. Street seats are available for a fee, but there are also plenty of free viewing areas available.

The parade is usually held just before Thanksgiving, on November 20, 2022. It starts at the intersection of Throckmorton and Weatherford Streets, proceeds south along Commerce Street, and ends on Third Street.

Fort Worth: Gift of Lights

Texas Motor Speedway

Gift of Lights at Texas Motor Speedway is a two-mile-long track featuring more than three million lights. Tickets start at $30 per carload and are available at the entrance or online. You only need one ticket per car, and your ticket is good for enjoying the display at any time you like. The website has a pre-made holiday music playlist so you can put on some seasonal tunes while driving through the lights for a full Christmas experience.

Grand Prairie: Prairie Lights

Prarie Lights

Prairie Lights is a two-mile stretch of decorations and festive fun featuring more than four million lights, hundreds of displays, a Holiday Magic light show, walk-through lighted displays, pictures with Santa, seasonal food, and family fun.

Prairie Lights runs from Thanksgiving until New Year's Eve, and the cost starts at $50 per vehicle. To avoid long lines, check the park status before leaving, visit between Christmas and New Year's Eve, or consider purchasing a Fast Pass to guarantee entry and skip the line.

Plano: Deerfield

Take a drive through the festively illuminated Deerfield neighborhood. You can also make a reservation for a carriage ride , which begins in the Legacy Church parking lot at Legacy and Preston Meadow. Deerfield is located in Northwest Plano between Preston and Coit roads. There are several ways to enter the neighborhood, but the roads that enter from Legacy Avenue tend to have the longest lines.

The lights are on every night from December 1–30, 2022, from sunset to 10 p.m. on weekdays and until 11 p.m. on weekends.

• Travel17679548635 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Born to be wildish! This was a fun way to see the city of Dallas! We spent the first twenty minutes getting trained on how to use the bikes and practicing on quieter streets. This was probably necessary with these e-bikes as using the throttle took a little getting used to. Our guide and her assistant guides were very safety minded. With no bike lanes, we rode close to each other, two abreast and took the whole lane. The history aspect was pretty minimal but we got lots of recommendations on where to eat and drink. For me, the best stop on the tour was at Blues Alley with so many great murals painted by local artists depicting the history of blues music in Dallas. The tour size was probably bigger than usual as it was the weekend of the total eclipse (we had about 20 in our group). It was a lot of fun traveling as a pack on these cool orange bikes. Very little energy was needed to ride the bikes and since you move at about 20mph you generate your own wind, it's a nice way to stay cool on a hot Dallas day and take in some sights! I highly recommend! Read more Written April 10, 2024

Are you wondering where to go to see the Drive through Christmas Lights near me?

There are so many great places to see Christmas Lights in Dallas. We’ve got you covered, check out these places to see beautiful Christmas lights around Dallas .

Deerfield Christmas Lights in Deerfield (Plano)

Dates: December 1 – 30 from 7pm – 10pm on Weekdays, 7pm – 11pm on Weekends.

Where: Northwest Plano between Preston Road and Coit Road.

This has to be one of the very best around and right here in Plano.

The neighborhood goes all out with lights, carriage rides, and carolers. Usually, around 75% of homes are decorated with lights and some have incredible animatronics too.

Top Tips to enjoy the Deerfield Christmas Lights in Plano

Our suggestion is to go early in the night and season unless you like to sit in super long lines and major traffic. People will come from all over the metroplex to see the displays at Deerfield.

The best times are 5.30-7pm or 9-10pm.

WE HIGHLY recommend visiting Deerfield on less busy nights during the week. Lines on the weekends can be hours long.  To prepare for the long lines, the next tip is especially important…

The Deerfield Neighborhood does not have public restrooms, so please plan accordingly before your visit as you will get caught in very long lines to see the lights. 

**Please do not get out of your car to take pictures as it causes problems with traffic as well.

Where to enter the Deerfield Neighborhood

There are MANY entrances to the Deerfield neighborhood for Christmas Lights.  The entrances off Legacy have the longest lines.  We suggest starting near the back of the neighborhood off Quincy Lane (turn right down Bettye Haun Drive). 

Deerfield is located in Northwest Plano between Preston Rd. and Coit Rd. You can also enter from Legacy on Colonnade or Archgate.

Watch all signs, drive carefully and enjoy the holiday lights!

Rainy nights are not a good time to go, a lot of the lights aren’t on.

Are you planning to Park and Walk?

Should you decide to walk the neighborhood, please park on a street in the far north part of Deerfield, close to Quincy Lane, and not on one of their busy streets as causes traffic problems.

Be sure to park north of the clubhouse, choosing a street that isn’t congested with cars driving through. An easy place to park is Haun Elementary School then walk south down Bettye Haun Drive.

If you park on the North side of the neighborhood (accessible via Quincy Lane) and have small toddlers, we recommend using a stroller or wagon, you’ll get to see the full sequence of the small details of the display.

Many are on a timer and you may miss them if you drive by too fast.

Be sure to pack some Hot Cocoa to sip as you walk

Consider taking cash for donations. There are a number of homes that are making collections for local nonprofits so be prepared for that and give when you can!

There is also a big Christmas tree at the Clubhouse, for great picture opps!

Wanting to hitch a ride in a horse-drawn carriage?

For a magical, fun, and easy experience, Carriage rides are available pre-booked with DFW Carriages starting November 24th through December 31st. Pricing starts at $195.
