One of America’s Best Christmas Displays is Just Hours from Boise

There are incredible Christmas displays all over Idaho, but unfortunately, none of them (yet) are ranking on national lists for being the “best in the nation.” We definitely have some strong competitors, though! However, one of the best Christmas displays in the entire country isn’t too far away from us here in Boise.

Stacker recently compiled a list of 25 over-the-top Christmas displays from across America. They said...

“As soon as the final slice of Thanksgiving turkey is carved, it seems radio stations start playing Christmas music around the clock, and twinkly lights appear on houses.”

And “Each of the Christmas displays included here puts its own spin on the holiday season. From the world's largest Santa to a holiday light tour that focuses on intentionally tacky displays, each landmark on this list takes an altogether different approach. Read on to discover states that boast one of these incredibly elaborate light displays and get inspiration for Christmas decorating.”

So, which one of the Top 25 over-the-top Christmas displays is closet to Boise, Idaho? And what kind of “spin on the holiday season” does it have?

Christmas on Temple Square in Salt Lake City

Here’s what Stacker had to say about Christmas on Temple Square, “Starting the day after Thanksgiving, Temple Square in Salt Lake City becomes decked out with a plethora of Christmas displays. Anyone can take in the life-size nativity scene, the daily Christmas concerts, and guided tours.”

BUT... if you're gonna go look at Christmas lights, make sure you have some hot chocolate first! Keep scrolling for the best hot chocolate in the Boise area and more Idaho Christmas displays 👇
