A Rockaway home display with a charitable mission: an on-site collection box gathers donations for juvenile diabetes research, and past seasons have featured live entertainment plus donated food and toys. Driving is the recommended way to visit.
Best time to arrive. Sunset in Queens is around 4:29 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 5:00 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 32°F, so dress for standing around outside.
