Get ready to light up your holiday season with Richmond’s light tours, where homes across the city and surrounding areas sparkle with festive displays.
Driving around to see festive Christmas lights is one of the best ways to get into the holiday spirit. With dozens of home light displays in the Richmond area, you don’t have to venture far to feel like you’ve accidentally arrived at the North Pole.
One tradition 35 years in the making is a Tacky Lights List annually produced by the Richmond-Times Dispatch. These aren’t just any old Christmas lights, though—to qualify for the tour, the homes must have at least 40,000 lights in the display. The tour has participating houses in Richmond, Glen Allen, Chesterfield, Henrico, and other cities in the area.
Why drive when you could ride? At Discover Richmond Tours, the guess-work isn’t something you have to worry about—the curated light tour weaves throughout the area, offering guests the comfort of the holiday spirit, without the need for a GPS. Spaces are extremely limited for 2024 tours, so don’t delay if it’s on your to-do list this season.
Another grand illumination opportunity is a guided tour from the inside of a limousine! Arrive in style and see the Christmas lights from the window of a luxurious vehicle. The experienced chauffeurs know the best routes to see the most lights. Be sure to contact Richmond Limousine for a coveted spot on their two-hour Tacky Light Tour.
