17 Homes & Neighborhoods To See Christmas Lights This Year (2024)
Many Arkansans love decorating their homes for the holidays, and there’s no end of excellent lighting displays.
Some people go all out in terms of expressing their love of lights. Newer development in technology has made it much easier for homeowners to incorporate some exciting features into their displays, including all sorts of colors and other effects. Some displays are also synced to music, which is pretty cool to watch!
For those who want to see the best lighting displays around and visit various NWA neighborhoods, we’ve chosen some of our favorites.
