This is a list of Johnson
County Kansas Christmas light displays worth going out of your way
to see. Click on the photos for larger images or links to pages devoted
to the displays.
The tours change every
year and several times during the Christmas season as new displays go up.
As of December 1, 2025, these are the 2024 listing with updates in red
as they become available. The Olathe and far south tours are completely
new and current.
If
you know of a display which should be listed, we would appreciate an email
telling us about it. We will spend over 100 hours visiting houses and updating
this site between mid November and New Years.

Deckard
Family Christmas Display
The Deckard Family Christmas Display used to be just two doors from
the Johnson County Line. Considering the modest size of the house and front
yard, Terry and Vicki Deckard did an amazing job. In 2016 they moved to
this new location with much more room and the display is even more impressive.
It was nearly finished on November 26, 2014

This 51st Street and Quivira Road Christmas Display was new to the
tour for 2019. We discovered it on the way to check on a nearby display
which is not up this year. It is even nicer than it appears in this photo,
but the street light partially washes the photo out. A large sign saying
"Joy" appears to the left of this photo.

This 48th Street Christmas Display in south Wyandotte County was
new to the Christmas light tour in 2017. We stumbled across it when we
were returning home after checking displays from previous years. There
are a mixture of inflated decorations, lights and fixed decorations. We
found the display more esthetically pleasing than many which use a lot
of blow ups.

Christmas Light Show
The animated Sohosky Christmas Light Show was new to the Johnson
County tour in 2020. We discovered it when it was entered in the "Shawnee
Rocks" holiday light contest. Music is broadcast on 100.1 FM and the lights
move with the music. We particularly liked the train which is a central
feature and the round, window like panel on the upper floor.

County
Line Holiday Display
This County Line Holiday Display was new to the tour in 2021. It
is smaller than many displays on the tour, but quite attractive and right
on the route. We ran across it in day time when it is as impressive as
at night. There is a small nativity and snowflake lights. I particularly
like the Santa's sleigh and reindeer lights over the left side of the house.

In 2008 Candy Cane
Lane recovered from several years of dwindling displays. It was the
51st year of Candy Cane Lane and every house was attractively decorated.
This display of lights was once again worth a special visit. They have
continued to put up the new displays and this has become one of the most
popular Christmas displays in Kansas City. Most were up by December 1,
2024. Longer review with more photos

Brady
Christmas Light Display
This
Brady Christmas Light Display has been
part of the Johnson County Christmas Light Tour since 2015. It seems to
have a little of everything wrapped together in one yard. There are more
Santa Clauses, sleighs and reindeer then we could count, with some of them
flying through the air. Lighted from Thanksgiving Day until January 1.
In 2019 they added a real sleigh from Nebraska.

Family Christmas Display
The Oshel Family Christmas Display started in 2011 with just a few
handmade PVC pipe trees laying on the roof but it has grown into a handmade
train and two PVC pipe trees on the roof and many inflatables situated
around the yard and along the street. There is a little more than you can
see in this picture. This a 2018 photo, but we like

2018 was the first year that this Vossen Christmas Display has had
its own listing. It is still a little smaller than most displays on the
tour, but is very nicely done and makes a nice greeting for the larger
Oshel Family display next door and other smaller ones down the next couple
of blocks. Dale & Jodi Vossen add more lights each year.

Soffiotto's Wonderland added many more lights
in 2023. Its location on a rise along a curve in the street as you drive
to Nyman Lights stands out and makes a striking presence. It is quite attractive
when approached from any direction. The 2024 colors were red and green.
In 2025, the Soffiotto family plans to have it up Thanksgiving night.

is played through a speaker. Although the program has been up for many

the music which goes with the lights. The nearby neighbors homes may be
lighted as the season progresses. It runs from 5-10 PM, but longer on weekends
& as Christmas gets closer the hours will be extended. I've redone
several props and made lots of improvements. Learn more about this display

2024 is the eleventh year that the Clark Family Christmas display
has been on this tour. The house is on a very large lot on a street
where it is hard to stop and view. Many of the lights flash and music plays
on 91.9 FM. This year the display is much larger and fuller with a mixture
of inflatables and other features. This photo shows a small part of the
display, which is hard to photograph all together.

Haskins
Street Display 2025 Display is up
This neat, varied display near 79th Street and Pflumm in Lenexa has been
around for many years. This
Haskins Street Christmas Display has
many moving figures including Santa Claus on a teeter totter and a small
Ferris wheel. This is a very full display which is hard to take all in
on a single visit. I particularly like the parachuting dog! This display
is even interesting in daylight.

Cody Street Christmas Display
has been part of our Christmas light tour off and on for several years.
It wasn't present in 2023 and although it was up when we first checked
in 2024, the display was not turned on at 7:30 PM on December 1. When I
checked again in the day a few days later, I tried see what the display
looked like, but none of the inflatables were up. Finally I came by when
everything is on and you see the photo above.

they have a strong impact. This photo shows all of the display. If the
same decorations were in a larger yard, they would probably be much less
effective.

Wars related themed inflatables, including a large Millennium Falcon, a
Tie Fighter with "Dreaming of a Hoth Christmas," a Death Star and a troop
of storm troopers dragging R2D2. It wa new to the tour in 2024 and will

Sar-Ko Aglow
is what the city of Lenexa calls the lighting ceremony at Sar-Ko-Par Trails
Park, but I think that is a good name for the park during the rest of the
Christmas season. The beautiful collection
of lighted trees around Rose's Pond is a popular destination on warm December
nights. The lights
go live on December 5, 2025 will remain until January 29, 2026, 6-11 PM.

Family Sound and Light Display
Ken and Marilyn Hager's computer
controlled sound and light display is attractive and has less flashing
and changing than most animated displays. The program runs from 5 PM to
1 AM. The electronics for this show are by Animated Lighting and the lights
are installed by Brighter Holidays. Tune your car radio to 91.3 FM to enjoy
the show. This was one of the first animated shows, having begun in 2003,
and the program is more tasteful, but less active than most shows today.

Christmas
Place - Terrace Place subdivision
Since 1992, the 23 homes of these two streets in the Terrace Place subdivision
have been creating Christmas Place. These homes are coordinated
with all keeping the same theme, rather than individually standing out.
Pulling into the subdivision is like walking through an enchanted forest.
There is a feeling of being inside this display that adds to the wonder
and isn't captured in the photo. Cindy Lou Corley started the tradition
by providing lighted candy canes to every home. Cindy died about
18 years later from breast cancer but the celebration continues. Up Thanksgiving
2024 through January 4.

the holiday display, which includes mostly fixed lights. There are just
a few flashing lights and the only movement is from the white deer at the

Coombs
Christmas Display
The Coombs Christmas display was new to the Johnson County Christmas

neighborhood in 2021. There are many inflatables. My favorites include
a swan in a pool, a golden "Noel," Snoopy driving a Zamboni machine and
a fishing Santa Claus in a power boat holding up a freshly caught fish.

saber fight between Darth Vader and Yoda, husky dog, Mickey and Minnie
Mouse, minions, 6 ft Momma and baby Dragon, huge Santa, Spiderman and a

Curtis
Family Christmas Light Display
Craig and Paula Curtis used 3,000 lights to decorate their home for the
first time, but over 28 years their display has grown to 30,000 lights.
For many years bulk of the Christmas lights were on the roof of the Overland
Park home, giving a unique look to the Curtis Family Christmas Light
Display. The display stays much the same each year, but Paula likes
to add a "misfit" to each year's display. It will be up Thanksgiving
through Christmas in 2025.

We stumbled across
this Riggs Road Christmas Carousel on our way to see the large display
which is farther up the street. Although this lovely display is smaller
than most on the tour, it is book ended by two unique items. The white
sign at the left near the road is a peanuts cartoon work in progress. We
hope to get back and see how it grows. The real stand out is the apparently
hand made carousel at the far right. As it turns, you first see Frosty
the Snowman, than Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Santa in his sleigh and
the Grinch.

Martin
Family Christmas Light Display
The Martin Family Christmas Display has been on the tour since 2013.
Just a few doors west of the Curtis Family Display, this nice presentation
is supplemented by lights in the yard next door. Craig and Michelle Martin
started putting up Christmas decorations in 1993 when they moved in.
Every year the display is changed somewhat due to items finally falling
apart from years of use, adding new items from the after Christmas blowouts,
and forgetting exactly where things were placed from the year before! The
display tentatively runs unto New Years.

it has been up, but it was new to the Christmas Light Tour in 2021. The
large weeping tree of lights is the most noticeable part of the display,
much of which is around to the left where it doesn't show in this photo.

The Kreimendahl Holiday Display has been on this tour since 2013.
Jeff and Marcia Kreimendahl have since made it even larger. Located just
a few doors farther west than the past two stops on the Johnson County
tour, this display is a bit smaller than we usually put on this tour, but
it is very nice and the culdesac in front of it even makes a nice place
to turn around before continuing the tour. In 2023, the
red structure shown in the photo was no longer there when checked.

The Antioch Road Christmas Display at Antioch Road and 155th Street
is new to the South Johnson County Christmas Light Tour in 2024. I first

the long driveway really stand out. At night the light arches over the

most interesting. The decorations are spread over a large corner lot and
include Christmas music coordinated with some of the lights, coming from
a speaker near the back. This display has been up 25 years and we first
found it in 2009. Robert Millbyer hasn't been able to put it up every year,
but it is bigger and better in 2022.

Nyman
Lights On Bradshaw has a soundtrack which broadcasts on 99.9 FM and
includes a talking Christmas tree. In 2017, this
display expanded to encompass all 13 homes in the culdesac. Every house,

over a speak for a short while. The program is tied to several movie themes
and you may see someone running from a dinosaur across several of the light

Addington Christmas Display
The
Addington Christmas
Display is has been growing since it was added to the tour in 1917.
Since 2021 it has moved into the yard next door and the entire culdesac
is nicely decorated. Some of the other homes could make this tour on their
own. Joe Addington takes great care in creating each piece by hand. All
are lit with spotlights and the house, trees and bushes are adorned with
lights as well. Every home on this culdesac has a Christmas display, some
of them have been growing as well.

1200
Christmas Card Lane
For generations Mission Ridge subdivision was known as Christmas Card Lane
and had nearly 200 homes decorated for Christmas. It was a destination
for families and tours and each home had a large "Christmas Card" in the
yard with a message from the household. Those days are ended, but the homes
around 1200 Christmas Card Lane at the corner of Sunset Drive and
Frontier Lane are still very nice.

Lewis
Family Handmade Christmas
The Lewis Family Handmade Christmas display is worth visiting day
or night. The corner lot has many elements which can be enjoyed during
the day, such as the wooden Santa and sleigh on the porch roof and a wooden
handmade life size nativity on the south side of the home. The nativity
alone would put this display on the tour, but there are also moving deer
and a ring of snowmen (made from wooden spindles) holding hands around
the front tree.

108th
Street Display
The 108th Street Christmas Display at Cedar Creek in Olathe was
new to the West Johnson County Christmas Tour in 2023. It is a large display
with Green Bay Packers logo, a Christmas Story display in a window and
many animated items. It is hard to take it all in and I bet you spot more
on repeated visits. The neighbors have let the Strom Family (who has the
house in this photo) place multiple displays throughout the neighborhood.
There are at least 14 homes with substantial decorations.

Street Christmas Display
This 70th Street Christmas Display is a bit small to be included
on the tour, but it is unique and close to the route you are already following.
We particularly like the North Pole with life sized Mr. & Mrs. Claus
and the stockings hung on the porch. There is also a flashing landing strip
for the sleigh.

about an hour before it starts over again. The music is broadcast on 98.7
FM, but there are also speakers. There is a small parking area so it is
easy to pull off and watch as two small trees and two large light bulbs
narrate the program.

Allen
Christmas Display
The Allen Christmas Display was started in 2019. The yard includes
many moving elements, but the focal point is a large animated village and
carousel in the garage, which you are invited to walk up and enjoy. You
are also invited to leave a letter for Santa, hug a giant teddy bear and
help yourself to a candy cane. Faces in three small trees sing Christmas
songs which are playing over speakers and at 100.1 FM. We really like this
display and the longer we watched it, the more we found.

Lake Christmas Lights
The north end of Gardner Lake has several homes with nice Christmas
light displays. Although none of the displays is quite large enough to
be on this tour, the group make a nice additional drive. Unfortunately
the lovely reflected lights in this part of the lake are a little difficult
to see through the trees and houses. This photo was taken with permission
from a private yard. The home listed has the largest display and is also
worth seeing on the land side.
