S. Quincy Street Lights

✓ Verified 2025-2026

Known for a star that towers roughly four stories tall, this Arlington display invites visitors to pose for photos on a sled and mail letters via a Santa mailbox — include a return address and you'll get a postcard reply. A cheeky peeing-reindeer figure hides among the extensive lights.

Best time to arrive. Sunset in Arlington is around 4:47 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 5:17 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 28°F, so dress for standing around outside.
