It’s December and that means it is time to go Christmas light hunting, so Star Mail has put together a list of where you can see light displays near you.

MONTROSE

464 Sheffield Road, Montrose has confirmed their light display for this year. It is a large display with moving features, a Nativity scene, inflatables, a snow machine and projections that supports the CFA. Lights are on from 8pm to 11pm each night from 1 December to 25 December.

Ravenswood Court, Montrose has also confirmed a medium sized Christmas light display for this year. Four houses will be decorated from 4 December to 27 December and lights will be on from 8pm to 12am.

In nearby Hansford Close, Kilsyth house number eight will have an incredible light display featuring roof decorations, a window display and lasers/ projections. Lights will be turned on at 7pm and go off at 12am. See the display all through December and into early January.

MOUNT EVELYN

Some displays in Mount Evelyn have not been confirmed for this year but it is worth a drive knowing the standard from last year.

Hordern Road, Mount Evelyn usually sees seven houses take part in a massive display with moving features, an interactive display, a snow machine and much more. Grantully Street, Mount Evelyn also had a medium light display last year.

92 York Road, Mount Evelyn has Christmas lights every year and this year is no different.

MT DANDENONG

A huge display – named Benhaylem Hollow – will be lighting up Mt Dandenong across Christmas at 7 Ornata Road. Tucked away in the middle of the forest, all the lights and moving features will be viewable from the road.

Another light display will be held nearby at 70 Falls Road, featuring lights, an interactive display and a decorated roof.

FERNTREE GULLY

Kelvin Drive will see two huge Christmas light displays within walking distance of each other. At 31 Kelvin Drive there will be music, inflatables, projections and moving features with the front yard done up like Santa home on the North Pole with three snow machines and plenty of lights.

Just down the road another house has kept a 40 year decorating tradition continuing with snow machines and stockings full of Covid-safe lollies being handed out to children.

MONBULK

Six large Christmas inflatables will be on display at 22 Moxhams Road throughout the holiday period along with a Norfolk pine decorated with light up lanterns.

Just down the road in The Patch there will be a medium sized display on 47 View Road with moving features, a decorated roof and projections.
