🎅🎄Top 10-ish List 🎄🎅
Now that our Display Contests have wrapped up, it’s time for my Top 10-ish displays for 2025!
1. 633 S 112th St - What can I say, this is the biggest and one of the longest-running displays in Lincoln, and 2025 will be their final year. For more than 30 years, Gwen and Russ have created Christmas magic and memories for countless families. Thank you both for an incredible run!
2. 7300 Carson Rd - If Christmas Vacation is your go-to Christmas movie, you need to see this display. The creativity here is off the charts, with new details added year after year. This display earned the title of THE Grand Display in our contest.
3. 5143 Garland St - You can tell a lot of care went into every part of this display. The lighting works perfectly with the landscaping and continues around the entire house. The deer on the tree stump with its moving lights is such a cool detail. Definitely a must see.
4. 6234 Franciscan Dr - This Charlie Brown–themed display is packed with charm and creativity. From Santa projected in the top window to the hand-made cutouts and layers of lights, it’s full of thoughtful details.
4. 6830 Glass Ridge Dr - This home is completely transformed by its Charlie Brown Christmas theme. The projections bring the house to life, setting the stage for the skating pond, music, and all the extra decor that make this display stand out.
5. 7310 S 18th St - This display is beautifully synchronized to music, with the added fun of being able to choose your own songs. The pixel video playing on the garage adds another layer that really brings the whole experience together.
5. 2430 Dorothy Dr - This is one of those displays where you can spend time just taking it all in. With hand-made cutouts and so many details packed into one stop, it’s easy to see why it’s been a favorite for so long.
6. 824 W Arezzo Court - The music and lights are beautifully synchronized, the song choices are spot on, and the big LED tree is an absolute standout.
7. 1101 N 97th St - Each year this display adds something new. The music and lights work beautifully together, and the white car covered in lights is a unique and fun addition that really stands out.
7. 900 N 96th St - This display is filled front to back with decor and lights. There’s so much to see that it really takes more than one stop to take it all in.
8. 7440 Exbury Rd - If you’re looking for the singing tree that used to be near SouthPointe Mall, it didn’t go away, it just moved. The singing tree and music are still paired beautifully at this spot.
9. Old Cheney Rd & S 98th St - Multiple trees lit up in dazzling white lights create a beautiful scene that’s always worth seeing.
10. 2201 N 78th St - Luminaries are usually a Christmas Eve tradition near Sheridan Blvd and Stratford, but you can enjoy them any time at this stop.
And here is a route for these! 1hr 30mins approximate drive time.
