Denver Christmas Light Display Ranked as One of the Best in America

Nov 30, 2022, 2:54 PM

Earlier this week Denver was ranked as one of the most festive cities in America around the holidays. Obviously it takes a lot of really cool Christmas stuff to earn a ranking like that, but having one of the best light displays in the country certainly helps!

U.S. News and World Report recently put out a ranking of the 23 best Christmas light displays in the United States. On that list was a light display in Denver: The Blossom of Light and Trail of Lights at the Denver Botanic Gardens.

These displays were the only representatives in Colorado on the list.

The Blossom of Light display is located at 1007 York Street in Denver. It opened for the season on Nov. 18 and will continue through Jan. 7.

The Trail of Lights is located at Chatfield Farms at 8500 W. Deer Creek Canyon Road in Littleton. It opened for the season on Nov. 25 and will continue through Jan. 1.
