The City of Brantford and the County of Brant have lit up for Christmas.
Homes across the city are anticipating the arrival of Santa Claus and many areas can be seen glowing from the streets.
Homes in Paris, St. George, and Brantford have a variety of displays this year. From Santa and Mrs. Claus on motorcycles to the Grinch stealing lights, inflatables, dancing lights and festive wreaths, there are plenty of lighting displays to check out this season.
Christmas Lights on Heron is located in St. George and offers an interactive display that took 120 hours to put together. The display shows from 5:00 to 10:30 p.m. and includes a radio station that visitors can tune into for a lighting show.
Facebook groups, like Brantford Christmas Light Displays, offer many suggestions to help residents find the best spots and areas with decor.
