Short Description
  • When people think about Christmas lights and holiday decorations in New York City, they usually think of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree and the lavish store window displays of Midtown Manhattan.
  •  But some of the best lights and decorations to be seen are in Dyker Heights, Brooklyn. 
  • In 2023, expect to see massive, professionally done light displays (some costing upwards of $20,000!).
  •  Dyker Heights has truly become a “must-see” for many people during the holidays. Starting in the 1980s, Christmas started getting bigger and brighter in this neighborhood with each passing year.
  •  There is an unspoken competition among the homeowners in the neighborhood, so some have added huge lawn ornaments and motorized displays, making for a lavish holiday spectacle. 
  •  For our walking tour, meet your tour guide in Dyker Heights, where we will walk as a group to the main "show".
  •  There, your tour guide will show you all the important light displays and tell you the history behind each of them.
