Smyrna “Bright Nights” map lets you find spectacular lit-up homes for a drive-by tour

A new community project, Smyrna Bright Nights, highlights Smyrna homes with light displays, through a fun website and interactive map.

So far in 2025, there are just a handful of homes listed on the Smyrna Bright Nights website, along with pictures and brief descriptions from the homeowners.

If you love to drive around looking at holiday lights, this is for you. It is FREE, unlike the large ticketed drive-thru light displays. It’s a relatively safe family activity. And it’s a holiday tour with no set route, so you can plan your own stops. 

An important note about the displays at private homes:
These are put on by regular people, who have neighbors to consider. PLEASE be considerate when visiting these homes. Don’t block the street or private driveways, and obey all parking signs. When in doubt, just do a slow drive-by and stay in your car.

See the interactive map here — starting Dec. 6th.
The map is updated with new locations on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons.
The light displays are turned on from dark until at least 9 p.m., and some are on later.
