The famous Kerry Park viewpoint pairs the lit-up downtown skyline with the decorated historic homes of the surrounding Queen Anne neighborhood. It works best as a scenic stop on a broader lights outing rather than a dedicated display.
Best time to arrive. Sunset in Seattle is around 4:18 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 4:54 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 34°F, so dress for standing around outside.
