Light displays / North Carolina

Christmas lights in North Carolina, 2026

5 light displays in 4 cities: 2 you can drive through and 3 you walk. 5 have published 2026 dates.

Sources last checked October 9, 2026. Listed by opening date, with displays still waiting on 2026 dates at the end.

Dates, hours and prices come from each organizer's own website or the official listing named with it and can change, and some sites still show last season's details. Check with the organizer before you go. How we check

All North Carolina light displays

Also in North Carolina: 11 tree farms, checked the same way.

More Christmas lights by state in the South: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia.

Every listing links to the organizer's page; we list only displays whose dates or details we could confirm there. A display gets a page of its own once it has posted 2026 dates, and a display still waiting on dates gets one only in a state with at least 3 dated displays; until then its full details sit on this page.
