Your 2025 Guide To Drive-Thru Christmas Light Displays In The Quad Cities Area

'Tis the season for hot cocoa and drive-thru Christmas lights.

It's a question that pops up on social media dozens of times around the QCA: "Where can we go look at Christmas lights?"

Houses and buildings all over the Quad Cities and surrounding area neighborhoods and homes are lit up with beautiful lights, inflatables, and some fantastic yard decorations.

Many community organizations, families, and other groups have come up with drive-thru light shows that time up with music or are just really cool. To help you and your family get the full Christmas light experience this holiday season, we've put together a full list of drive-thru Christmas light displays or park-and-watch light displays.

But there are plenty of beautifully decorated houses that aren't single-family homes, they still deserve some recognition.

That's why we created this list so you can check out these beautiful light displays and support the folks who put these light displays together.
