The PNWCL’s team of light and display enthusiasts find immense joy in helping spread the magic of holiday displays to our communities. Their mission is simple: To make the holidays brighter for all by connecting families with the most captivating and family-friendly displays in the area.

It’s not just about the displays; it’s also about the people behind them. Community members are encouraged to add their holiday displays to the map by filling out a submission form.
