Rain, rain, go away! We’ve got some flooded lights. Between the moisture and the wind, we are taking the show offline for 72 hours 😭😭😭

It’s TIIIIIIIIME! The 2025 holiday spec-TACKY-lar is officially up and running from 5:30pm-10pm nightly with music and synchronized lights, and from 10pm-6am with steady state lights. We still have a dozen or so inflatables to put up, which should be up by the end of this weekend.

Tune to 90.1FM for the music!

Being a full time doctoral student while also working full time means we’ve been a bit slow getting the 2025 show up and running.

Our current goal is 11/16 at 5pm!

This weather is great for ducks, not for dancing lights. The show will not run 12/29. Here’s hoping it dries out a bit by tomorrow

It’s the 2024 Holiday Spec-TACKY-lar! Enjoy tens of thousands of twinkling Christmas lights and larger than life inflatables of your favorite holiday characters. Feel free to pose for photos- just don’t cross any of the lighted fences in the flower boxes.

New this year: it’s a synchronized light show. Tune to 90.1 FM from your vehicle, or enjoy the music from the sidewalks speakers. The lights dance and music plays from 5pm to 10PM daily.

Located a block south of John Ball Park on Valley Ave SW between Park street and Butterworth. You’ll know when you’ve arrived!

We still have a few loose ends to tie up, but the 2024 Valley Ave DANCING lights are up and running. That’s right- all new this year our show is synchronized to some of our favorite specTACKYlar holiday songs. The lights dance and the music plays on 90.1FM from 5pm-9:55pm daily. The lights on on without music from 10pm-6am daily.

Well this can only mean one thing. Install has begun! And we have some spectacular surprises in store this year

Monday is the day! We are probably 70% of the way installed, and folks have already been stopping by!

Lights are on at dusk, off at dawn. If you’re coming by past 10 PM, please do be mindful that it is a residential neighborhood with a lot of young kids and college students who are all quite busy this time of year. But second and third shift workers deserve to enjoy the holiday magic too.
