A gift to the community

This isn’t just another event—it’s a gift to the community, built from the ground up with the support of people like you. Every dollar donated brings more lights, more magic, and more unforgettable moments to Southeast Wyoming.

The magic of the holiday season

There’s something about Christmas lights that stirs the soul.

The twinkle of a million bulbs, the soft glow of reds, blues, and golds reflecting on the snow, the gasps of wonder from children and adults alike—this is the magic of the holiday season. For one man, this magic became a lifelong mission.

​They call him The Original Christmas Light Guy—the man who, decades ago, turned a simple passion into something extraordinary. He started small, decorating his home with an extravagant display that became a local legend. Then, it grew—first to his neighborhood, then his town. Eventually, his Christmas light displays became grand productions, drawing thousands of visitors over the years. But something was missing.

​As he saw light shows dazzling major cities, he saw something heartbreaking—small towns, rural communities, and less-traveled places were often left out of the magic. Families who couldn’t afford to travel to big-city displays missed out on the awe, the joy, and the wonder that comes with a true Christmas spectacle.

​Christmas magic should belong to everyone.

A Mission to Light Up Small-Town America—and Beyond


Picture
Now, The Original Christmas Light Guy is on a mission to bring world-class Christmas light drive-thrus to small towns all across America—and quite possibly, the world.
​
Imagine driving through a winter wonderland, where millions of twinkling lights dance in perfect harmony with classic holiday melodies. Imagine towering tunnels of light, glowing reindeer leaping through the air, and heartwarming scenes of the true meaning of Christmas—all just minutes from home.

​But this isn’t just about lights. It’s about giving back.

​Each and every Christmas Light Drive-Thru will not only bring joy but will also give back to the communities that host them. A portion of every entry fee will directly support local non-profits, food banks, children’s hospitals, and community initiatives in each city where a display is erected. Your ticket doesn’t just bring holiday cheer—it brings real, meaningful change.

🎄 Together, we can light up the world—one small town at a time. 🎄
