Holiday Light Shows: Drive-Thru and Drive-By Christmas Displays in DC for 2020
When you've gotta glow, Washington DC is merry, bright and lit up like—well—a Christmas tree. And the 2020 holiday season is no exception.
The loveliest thing about outdoor light shows in the time of Covid is they're tailor-made for social-distanced holiday joy. We have a comprehensive roundup of the best holiday light shows in the area.
Take a stroll through Meadowlark's Winter Walk of Lights, drive through Bull Run (camel rides are back this year!), get that Georgetown Glow, or make this the year your family checks out every light show. You can even catch some twinkles from the comfort of your own couch, watching the lights go on in Rockefeller Center, on Nantucket, and outside the White House.
While you're in a festive mood, check out our list of must-do holiday events in DC this year, and keep an eye on our Washington DC event calendar for up-to-the-minute access to all the great events happening both live and virtually for DC families.
Be advised that due to the evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic some events might be canceled on short notice. Check websites before you leave. And no matter your plans, keep your family and others safe by wearing masks and practicing social distancing. If an event appears too crowded, try using the “nearby” search feature on our calendar to find something else to do.
