Macaroni KID Christmas Lights Guide 2023

Where to find the best lights in Brentwood, Oakley, Bethel Island, Rio Vista, Dixon, and Clarksburg

December 8, 2023

According to a Pew Research Center Survey, about 73% of U.S. adults rate spending time with family as one of the most important things to them personally, regardless of how much time they actually spend doing it.

I would bet if you're on the Macaroni KID Brentwood website you also think family time is one of the most important things. And the best news is there is so much you can do as a family this time of year FOR FREE in this area, and looking at Holiday lights is a great option.

There's nothing quite like the magic of the lights this time of year.  So grab some hot cocoa, load up the family, and put on some Christmas music because our area has so many great lights displays!  

And for more Holiday Family Fun be sure to check out the Macaroni KID Brentwood events calendar HERE so you can spend more time together this Holiday season.   

*Please note:  This is a working list.  Not all displays have been verified as it's impossible for me to drive to each of these houses to check.  If one of these is your houses, please email us to verify your decorations are still up.  If something is wrong, please email us so we can edit or remove it.  

Brentwood

- Tunnels of Joy- La Costa Dr. 

This is one of the most well known Lights displays in the area.  Plan to park somewhere in the neighborhood and walk through.  The sidewalks are lined with light arches for you to walk under as you stroll around looking at all the pretty lights. You can also find food trucks and local entertainment there on the weekends as well.  This is free however every year they choose a pediatric cancer patient to raise funds for.  Learn more by visiting their facebook page. 

- Deck the Park- Brentwood City Park

Each year, local businesses, organizations and individuals can decorate a tree at city park and then people can enjoy walking around looking at all the trees and vote for their favorites.  Trees are usually ready for viewing mid-December
