The map in your pocket
The free Australia Christmas Lights app uses the same map. Get directions, mark the displays you have seen, and rate your favourites.
How it works
Each council has its own page with a map and a list of the displays in it. Pick the suburbs near you, look for the features you like, such as music or a Santa visit, and add your favourites to a trail.
Your trail opens in Google Maps as one route. Families add new displays every week in December, so check back often. If you decorate your house, add your display for free. It shows on the website and in the app at once.
Right now, 396 displays are on the map.
