No matter how you celebrate, you'll see homes in Saint Paul decorated with holiday lights throughout the winter season. Many homeowners here love to get into the festive spirit and contribute their delightful spin on the holidays.

Whether you're the kind of person who enjoys climbing up to string lights or you'd rather sit back and enjoy what others come up with, you're sure to bask in the beauty St. Paul has to offer. It's the home of some of the most stunning Christmas light displays in the nation.

You'll want to visit our amazing displays all throughout the city: 

• Rice Park
  Rice Park is already well-known for the WinterSkate skating rink that opens in mid-November every year. The park's annual ribbon-cutting ceremony kicks off the light-watching season as visitors gaze in wonder at the huge Christmas tree festooned with lights. Displays will continue this year, even though parts of Rice Park are still in the midst of an intensive renovation.
