Sad news. It is the end of our era... Sadly as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end.... This has been a difficult year and a very difficult decision to make.

For us there has been a lot of obstacles over the last several years and it has become even more difficult to continue putting on our shows. It's been even harder to get help or anyone to actually show up to help.
Between financial changes, setting up the displays in the heat every year, local traffic challenges and a change in community support over the last couple of years as well as the ever expensive constant upgrades to the display it has all honestly just taken it's toll.

We enjoyed the long run and did it all out of our own pockets for our own love of the holidays.
It was all about bringing the community together for us and that's what matters most. (And if we had to do it all over again we wouldn't change anything. It was worth it to us.)
But the time has come to move on from it all.

This year there is construction going on all around us due to a building boom in the area. That was just the final icing on the cake for safety and traffic control. Not to mention both of us having health issues in recent years that continue to be burdensome. (round 2 :( )

For us the time has come to make the difficult decision to end the display. It honestly has become way too popular for this tiny area. Not to mention it has just become too expensive and too time-consuming. We have other financial needs that are more important.

UPDATE:
That being said the entire -DISPLAY HAS BEEN SOLD-
It will be rebirthed out in Floral City
(Keeping it local and building on to an existing display)

We appreciate all of you, our guests over the years and have nothing but love for all of you. Thank you for making memories with us and for all the stories we have heard over the years, the memories and the smiles.

It's time for us to actually be able to enjoy others displays for a change. Our founder has been doing displays for over 30 years. Now it's time for others to step up in the community and build your own displays for others to enjoy. Please carry on the tradition.

Thank you for the years of memories. Hopefully someone else can take over the Christmas light displays lists.

Again thank you to everyone for all of your support over the years.
But It's our time now :)

A very special thank you to all of those who donated toys to the toy drive for CASA Citrus this year. This year was a bit slower for donations. Which was understandable considering how the economy has been lately. But you guys still came through! These bags were already taken up to Casa.
But apparently we forgot to post the pictures for everyone.

The good thing about Casa citrus, is that they help people year-round. Not just for Christmas.
And all of your donations help *local* families :)

If interested, you can help them year round as well. Simply by following their page and seeing what their weekly immediate shelter needs are. Something as simple as a $5 or $10 feminine or hygiene item can help and you can even have it shipped to them without ever leaving your house!

Thank you to everyone for always making these toy drives possible. All we do is provide the venue. You guys are the ones behind the scenes who truly rock!
Thank you again everyone :)

PARTY TIME! Our light show went rogue. We now have some of our Halloween favorites back in the playlist. The lights are still on every night through January 5th. If you missed it this year during our Halloween show, we have brought back some of those songs for the new year.

As lighting season winds down, this is the last hoorah for everyone to be able to enjoy the lights until next October.

Our lights will be on every night beginning at dark and stay on until 10:30 p.m.

One of Citrus counties Holiday homes

Our display has grown over the years and we have been in our current location since 2015. Our Holiday displays are known for being more of a focus on Halloween and Christmas. We do have landscape lighting for other holidays as well. Our display is computer controlled and FM broadcast to the street so you can enjoy the lights dancing to music. We also have speakers in our display for those who like to get out of their vehicles and check things out.

While viewing our display we must stress that all visitors keep their radio volumes to a minimum as we respect our neighbors and want to continue our display. In years past some visitors have been a Grinch and decided to blast their radios and honk horns. Please do not do that. Respect our neighbors and keep radio volumes to a minimum. We want to continue to spread joy to others through our display and keeping our neighbors happy is very important to continuing the show.

Our Halloween light show is normally the first week of October through Halloween night.

Our Christmas light show starts Thanksgiving night and runs through Jan 5th. If you come by the week before thanksgiving to see the progress, You may even catch a sneak peak of our light show being tested. Sometimes we literally have to sit in front of the lights with the computer to sort out conflicts and program everything to run properly.
