All displays are confirmed for 2023. The page was last updated on December 22, 2023 and that is probably our final update this season.

Selection for this page is subjective and I may have decided to leave off holiday displays that someone else would have included. Or maybe I haven't see them yet. Although I carefully researched where to find some of these, I stumbled across a several of these holiday light displays on the way to photograph others. Please email your suggestions for the tour.

2023 Lawrence Christmas Light Displays
Coneflower Court Lights  Map A
Coneflower Court Lights - Lawrence, Kansas
The Coneflower Court Lights was new to the Christmas Tour in 2021. It is anchored by two displays across the court from each other at 2702 & 2705 Coneflower Court which are done by the Ammann and Kalb families. White lights link the yards on both sides and go part way down the court. Near the end of those lights there is a yard with a small National Lampoon Christmas Vacation display. In 2023 most displays on the court will be lighted December 1 until January 1.

Lights on Andover Street Map H
Lights on Andover Street - Lawrence, Kansas
Lights on Andover Street was first recommended to us in late December 2022, but we were not able to check it out until 2023. The Jess household has a Lightorama powered display which broadcasts a music program on 88.7 FM.. The display is largely made up of set light fixtures, but my favorite part is the large red inflatable dragon which is tucked into the corner of the house. I would love to see with more light. The program runs 5-10 PM (11 PM on Friday - Sunday).

Santa's Workshop Light Program Map B
Santa's Workshop Light Program - Lawrence, Kansas
We first learned of the Santa's Workshop Light Program at the end of the 2022 Christmas season. The most interesting part of the Gustin family's display is the two story playhouse which is Santa's Workshop with the jolly elf in the upstairs window and a star above. Tune your radio to 89.7 FM to listen to the music which goes with the flashing lights. Although the address is on Winged Foot Court, the actual display is in the back yard and you watch it from Inverness Drive. There is a row of movie related inflatables along the closest side of the front yard.

Parkside Christmas Lights  Map I
Parkside Christmas Light Show - Lawrence, Kansas
Mary Ann and Gary Martin's Parkside Christmas is the best known animated Christmas light display in Lawrence and is one of the nicest we have seen anywhere. If you approach from the north, there may be a long line of vehicles waiting for their turn to watch the sound and light show. If you approach from the south, there is usually no line. Tune your radio to 96.9 FM to listen to the music which is coordinated to the flashing lights. Facebook. 2023 show runs Thanksgiving through Epiphany (January 5, 2024)

1132 Parkside Circle, Lawrence, Kansas 66049

Garcia Family Christmas Display  Map C
Vantuyl Drive Christmas Display - Lawrence, Kansas
Although this home on Vantuyl Drive is the most impressive, there are several nice nearby displays. Vincent Garcia's display includes recorded Christmas music playing through a speaker and flashing lights. The holiday display is turned on until about 10:30 on week nights and 11:30 on the weekends. This display remained very similar for several years, but has had more changes in recent years with the addition of the large inflated snowman (missing since 2022) and a few lights across the street.

Eldorado Drive Avenue Of Trees  Map D
Eldorado Avenue Avenue Of Trees - Lawrence, Kansas
The Eldorado Avenue Avenue Of Trees is new to the Christmas display tour in 2021. Many of the trees on this two block semicircular street have there trunks wrapped in Christmas lights like the tree in the photo above, particularly those at the east end of the street. The photo shows a particularly attractive light display on Laquinta Court, off of the drive.

Please email if you can provide more details about this display.

Westridge Court Holiday Lights   Map K
Westridge Court Holiday Lights - Lawrence, Kansas
Westridge Court Holiday Lights is a half block long culdesac that has a half dozen nice Christmas light displays. The home shown in the photograph above is at 3405, but there are a couple of others that could have just as easily been selected to represent this attractive collection. Thank you to Caleb Schletzbaum for first pointing this display out. Since 2013, there are pairs of 3 foot candy canes in front of each home on the culdesac.

Ranchero Drive Christmas Display  Map E
Ranchero Drive Christmas Display - Lawrence Kansas
I was blown away by this display the first time I saw the Ranchero Drive Christmas Display in 2008. The Pam and John Humphrey display is over 30 years old and changes from year to year more than most although it hasn't been up every year that we have checked. Many of the figures are handmade and they are changed out with some new ones every year. There are more in storage than on display. Just south of 13th Street and west of Monterey Way.

1320 Ranchero Drive, Lawrence, Kansas 66049

 Massachusetts Holiday Trees  Map L
Massachusetts Street Christmas Lights Every tree on Massachusetts Street (the main street in Lawrence) between 6th Street and 11th Street is covered with holiday lights. There are over 200 lighted trees in downtown Lawrence. Massachusetts is a nice place to begin your Christmas light tour, perhaps starting with supper at one of the many great locally owned restaurants.

Wildwood Dr & Woodridge Dr  Map F
Wildwood Drive and Woodridge Crive Christmas lights
This neighborhood display gets larger every year as multiple families work on it. There have been up to 40 homes near the intersection of Wildwood Drive and Woodridge Drive which were combined to run white Christmas lights in geometric patterns running from house to house and even over the street (3 times). As you drive or walk, you are surrounded by the Christmas light display. All of the lights were lost in a fire in 2017, but they were replaced with 220 reels of 'soft white' LED lights. The 2023 display is a little smaller.

 South Park Christmas Trees  Map M
South Park Christmas Tree - Lawrence, Kansas The South Park Christmas Tree is a huge tree that has been decorated with blue lights on the branches, icicles, flashing stars and hanging strings of lights which move with the wind. Get out of you ar and walk over to the tree to see all that is going on. There are also penguins, a snowman and an igloo made from lights near the base. South Park is just south of the downtown Massachusetts Street Christmas Trees. Parking is available on the north side of the park by the Court House.

The Easy Street Christmas Program is another of the new displays which we learned about at the end of the 2022 season (thanks to Kelli Bates for the recommendation). It consists of lights on the house and set pieces with the highlight being the versatile Christmas Tree at the right. The tree is featured in parts of the music program devoted to the University of Kansas Jayhawks and Kansas City Chiefs. The music broadcasts on 89.7 FM.

 Musick Family Display Map A
Musick Family Christmas Display - Eudora, Kansas
The Musick Family Christmas Display is just east of Church Street in Eudora. The adjacent Lindeen and Musick families' homes have large Christmas displays including a small sound and light program with the music being played through speakers. This display fills the large front and back yard and would take many photos to show. These displays are turned off fairly early in the evening. Some nights, most of the lights are off at 9:30.

 Elm Street Christmas Map E
Elm Street Christmas - Eudora, Kansas
Elm Street Christmas is new to our Eudora Christmas Light Tour for 2023. It is on a corner lot just a little west of Church Street. We spotted it on our way to check out the following display. Soft Christmas music is played over a speaker and the lights flash along to the music. There is a street light on the pole on the corer and it wash out the lights a little.

Please email if you can provide more details about this display.

 Lindeen Family Display Map B
Lindeen Family Christmas Display - Eudora, Kansas
The Lindeen Family Christmas Display is one of the largest we have seen. It and the adjacent Musick displays cover several acres around the two houses. These two displays and the McKenzie home are all related. They are actually 2 sisters and a brother. Merritt Musick's family, Marilyn Lindeen's family and Janice McKenzie's family. Amy of these displays would be worth going out of your way to see on its own. Some nights most of the lights are off by 9:30.

2213 North 1300 Road, Eudora, Kansas 66025

 Stevens Drive Christmas Display Map F
Stevens Drive Christmas Display - Eudora, Kansas
The Stevens Drive Christmas Display is new to our Eudora tour for 2023. It is strongly Santa Clause themed, with a dominate Santa near the street next to a North Pole mail box with a slot for letters to Santa. We don't know what happens to letters which are left in the box. there is also Santa's sleigh with raindeer on the roof.

Please email if you can provide more details about this display.

 Ditto House Map C
Eudora, Kansa Christmas light displays
In the spirit of the Ditto House which was in Overland Park years ago, this home is between the two previous displays and the one which follows and points at both of them. This is the home of Eudora Fire Chief, Ken Keiter. This display was added to the Eudora Christmas Display Tour in 2019.

Grinch Christmas Display Map G
Grinch Christmas Display -Eudora, Kansas
The Johnson family started their Grinch Christmas Display in 2013. It was the idea of Ryan Johnson, who likes Christmas less than his wife, Kelly, does. The displays is rearranged as new handmade wooden cutouts are added. 2022 is the sixth year that this display is on the the Eudora Christmas Light Display Tour. It will run through Christmas Eve 2023

1618 Cedar Street, Eudora, Kansas 66025

McKenzie Family Display Map D
McKenzie Family Christmas Display - Eudora, Kansas
The McKenzie Family Christmas Display, across from Eudora High School had been mentioned on this tour in passing as worth seeing on the way to the Lindeen & Musick Family Displays for many years, but since 2016 the display has been bigger and it has its own listing. It is a sprawling light display, much like the other two, not quite as large, but still growing. In our experience, it often is lighted later in the evening than the other two.

1274 East 2200th Road, Eudora, Kansas 66025
