We track 1 display in Amesbury — the 2nd-densest city for lights in Massachusetts. Every one of them is free to visit.
Displays here switch on around sunset. In Amesbury that means about 4:11 PM in early December and 4:10 PM by mid-month — the earliest sunsets of the year fall right in the middle of lights season. It is properly dark by about 4:43 PM, which is when the displays look their best. December nights in Amesbury typically drop to around 24°F.
| Date | Sunset | Fully dark |

| Dec 1 | 4:11 PM | 4:42 PM |
| Dec 15 | 4:10 PM | 4:43 PM |
| Dec 25 | 4:15 PM | 4:47 PM |
Residential displays have no facilities of their own — no parking, no toilets, nowhere to warm up — so it is worth knowing what is around. Within about three miles of the Amesbury cluster, OpenStreetMap maps 4 public car parks and 1 public toilet. Only 7 cafés or takeaways nearby, so bring a flask if you want one.
