'Tis the season to go see all of the holiday lights in metro Detroit. This list is a collection of holiday lights in metro Detroit for the perfect date night, night out with friends, or family trip.
This is perfect for a girls night or date night. Downtown Rochester has such fun bars, great restaurants, and small-business owned shops. Shop small!
THE BIG, BRIGHT LIGHT SHOW - Downtown Rochester, MI

My favorite metro Detroit holiday light experience. It feels less crowded than others because the Detroit Zoo has the space to hold an event of this size!

Located at Pine Knob this drive through experience is great for the whole family.
Magic of Lights | 313 Presents
Canterbury Village also has incredible small-business owned shops you can visit during the Holiday Stroll. They also do a cookie stroll in December when all the shops give free cookies and you rank them. So fun!
Canterbury Holiday Stroll
Bring your coat, hat, and gloves for this interactive walk through the woods.
Glenlore Trails - Aurora
This sells out fast. If you want to go during the holiday season, get your tickets early on.
Holiday Nights in Greenfield Village -The Henry Ford
This was the light show I did growing up so it has a special place in my heart. What makes this one unique is the train ride to see the holiday light displays.
