What are the best Christmas light displays in Ohio?
To say that Ohio brings the heat when it comes to holiday lights would be an understatement. Some of the best light shows in the U.S. can be found right here. So, let's take a look at some of the best Christmas light displays in Ohio so you know where to go next holiday season:
- The Legendary Lights of Clifton Mill, Clifton, OH: Perhaps one of the biggest holiday light shows in the country can be found at the historic Clifton Mill. It has been nationally recognized numerous times. With over four million twinkling lights it is no wonder this epic light show gets a lot of attention. Not only will you enjoy the lights, but there is also a Santa Claus Museum and an antique toy collection.
- A Carillon Christmas, Dayton, OH: Carillon Historical Park gets dolled up for the holidays in another epic light show in Ohio. You can take a delightful stroll through 15 miles of lighted pathways, stop at the Carillon Tree of Light (a 200-foot-tall structure in the shape of a Christmas tree), and enjoy live music, Santa's Toy Shop, caroling, and a giant "Candy Cane Slide." And there are plenty of more fun things to discover in and around the park.
- Magic of Lights, Columbus, OH: This recent addition to Ohio's collection of impressive light shows starts out with a bang. There are over two million lights in this festive drive-thru experience. Head to Crew Stadium in Columbus to get your Christmas light fix for the season. And since you can stay nice and toasty in your own car, you can load up on snacks and hot cocoa and enjoy a leisurely drive.
Speaking of driving, one of our favorite things to do is go on a Christmas town road trip to some of the most festive towns in Ohio. Grab an RV from RVShare and hit the open road.
