Thinking over where to see Christmas lights around the world to bring up your holiday spirit? You have a veritable boatload of options no matter where you go and travel this holiday season—but here are 24 of the best Christmas lights displays from Tokyo to New York City. These options that dazzle and sparkle are a mixed bag in the best possible way: from botanical gardens that get a makeover for the Christmastime, to waterfront winter wonderlands (in cold and hot environments), to city streets that get dressed up for the occasion.
You can expect the usual suspects: towering trees, ice rinks where beginners and experts skate side-by-side, lights sculpted in the likeness of flora and fauna, plenty of Santa and Nutcracker figures, and even one spectacular display done up as an in-car drive-through experience. Nine of these incredible light shows call the US home, while the rest are scattered across the globe. May these lovely lights bring you joy and wrap your year in a festive bow.
