Checking out homes with Christmas lights shows in Atlanta area is one of the cost effective thing to do during the holiday for family. We are not talking about few Christmas lights here and there along your front lawn. We are talking about The Griswold’s Christmas light type. These are serious home owners who took pride in meticulously put together thousand of lights, control box and synchronized music for amazing holiday light displays.
As we put up our Christmas trees and get our pictures with Santa done in the mall, set aside one of the night to get the kids in the car and drive by one of these fabulous homes with Christmas lights shows that they will enjoy and beg you to bring them back season after season.
Many houses with Christmas Light shows also accept donation for their chosen charities. It’s a great way to spend holiday time with your family without breaking the bank. It’s one of our family favorite holiday activity!
This year, I have updated the list with as much information I can find. Some of the houses from last year are no longer putting up the light and we also have a couple new houses. So here it’s the guide to Homes with Christmas Lights to Synchronized Music in Atlanta.
Homes with Christmas Lights Shows in Atlanta 2012
1. Christmas in Cumming – CANCELLED
Unfortunately, because of many changes this past year for all the show participants, like brand new babies, neighbors moving away and the economy still sucking the show for 2012 has been canceled.
One of the best Christmas Light Shows in Atlanta area IMHO and one that helps benefit a great cause! With 6 houses this year and about a quarter million (250,000) lights dancing to 20 delightful Christmas songs, this year’s show promises to be stunning. Drive through and experience the show from inside. Houses light up and dance with the music while you listen on your car radios.
