- 2117 Gisbourne Drive: “Flower Mound Christmas” has over 18,000 lights that are synchronized and animated to music!! Tune your radio to 107.3 FM to enjoy the full effect! UPDATE 12/6/17: Happy Holidays – This past year has brought a lot of change for our family. We moved to another part of Flower Mound just a few months ago, and the adjustment has kept us quite busy. You may not know this, but the first time we put up the lights, it took months and months of planning and almost 2 weeks to execute and build the display. With the timing of our move, we have decided we are going to take this year to regroup and come up with something new for next year. We anticipate doing a much smaller display this year, but that won’t be up till the week before Christmas (target: 12/18.)
After 10 years it feels a bit empty to not be in full swing this time of year. We love being a part of your traditions. We have already started planning for 2018 and have some amazing new ideas. – The Ward Family

Light the Night at Texas Motor Speedway- Drive Threw light display $20/car
Thanks, Jennifer! You’re right… we had a separate page for Gift of Lights at Texas Motor Speedway, but didn’t include it on the list. We’ve now added it:)
At 10pm on 12/7 there was nothing special at Gardner’s Christmas Speciial in FB. Only one house on the block even seemed to have lights. Pharr’s Christmas in FB was excellent. There were about 6 or more houses all hooked up together synced to music. Good display. Hebron and High Sierra was a neat display as well, they glassed off the garage and had a lot of animatronics. Fryer st in the colony was a cool display with fake snow with lights underneath, and synced to music. The “spectacular” in the colony was no where to be found at 11:45, it may stop early.
Colin – Thank you so much for the detailed information. I’m sure your comments will help many readers!
The show at The Colony’s Central Fire Station was confirmed tonight and recommended. My kids got a special kick when the ambulances and fire trucks entered and exited the station.
