After making it through the year that is 2020, we could all use an extra cup of holiday cheer.
Driving with your family and looking at Christmas light shows around the Twin Cities and MN is an uplifting, pandemic-safe activity! Plus, in many cases, it’s relatively inexpensive.
This Holiday Lights Display Guide started when I launched Give Me The Mike in 2017, and I love compiling the list every year. It keeps growing and growing! I hope you enjoy it as much as I like creating it.
I am still adding Christmas light shows to this Guide. However, to be included, homeowners or organizers must submit information. To add your display, click here.
Please share it with those you love, and most of all, happy holidays!

Make sure you have current information
Some popular light shows are not happening in 2020 due to COVID-19. Those include:
- Canadian Pacific Holiday Train (they are hosting virtual events)
- Kiwanis Holiday Lights, Mankato
- Holidazzle, Minneapolis (they are hosting virtual events)
- Larson’s Lights, New Hope
It should also be noted that the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum originally sold out for the season and has since switched to a drive-thru format. Tickets are now available for their experience, which runs through January 17.
For those who didn’t know, Holiday Lights in the Park at Lake Phalen in Saint Paul ended after the 2016 season.
All of the displays on this guide were confirmed by the homeowners/organizers. Be careful, as other online light guides are outdated!

- Message from the owners: Beginning in 2011, came some inspiration to bring a gift, or “Joy of the Season” to those around us. What better way we thought than through the power of light. Illuminating the darkness, choreographed to music, we share this joy with our neighbors, friends, and the greater community. “Joy of the Season” has been a way for us to share some cheer and the meaning of this holiday season with those nearby.
