Description

Enjoy a magical stroll through Dyker Heights in Brooklyn, where homeowners take holiday decorations to a whole new level. You will be guided by a native Brooklynite who knows all about the area and the history of this annual tradition. Visit Lucy Spata’s house, the woman who started it all over 40 years ago. Every inch of her property is lined with angels, toy soldiers and snowmen. Marvel at house after house displaying thousands of lights, reindeers, toy soldiers, life-size cartoon characters, and nativity scenes. The local operator is owned and operated by residents of Dyker Heights. They aim to work with the community to offer guests a real taste of the area and its history, and to support local businesses.
