Coors + Garner (aka Christmas Street)
This street near Coors & Garner in the South Valley is decked out with decorations for a half-mile stretch.
2nd + Cottonwood
Take a drive down to the Los Ranchos area of town to check out one of the coolest houses in the city. Tune your stereo to 87.9 to watch the show. Bonus, head west to 4th St and drive under the lights that reach overhead in the shopping area of Los Ranchos.
Pinnacle View + Gray Rock Pl
Up in the Northeast Heights tucked close to the mountains is another special house. The lights are so good that you will swear they are a professional show. From the American flag to pinks and blues, this house’s lights are set to music as well. The man behind the show only asks for one simple thing in exchange for viewing his lights–a donation to a charity of his choice. Bonus, he has luminarias programmed to the music too!
Ventura + Wilshire
Known as “Trujillo’s Winter Wonderland,” this house has thousands of lights on display. Also the residents of this home are accepting canned good donations and letters to Santa.
Wyoming + Palomas Park
Tune your radio to 91.1 FM and watch the lights dance along with the Christmas tunes.
Top of Montgomery
Take a drive further north on Tramway and you will get a glimpse of an angel hung on the side of some big rocks just up the mountain. It is difficult to get close up to the home, but it can be seen from a distance.
