Holiday Lights @ the Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial

The Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial in South Royalton adorns their grounds with thousands of colors. Explore the grounds on foot of drive though. Lights are on 4-9pm until New Years.

Here’s some info to help plan your visit from @Vermontforreal:

⭐️ This display is a big loop in the woods that you can drive through as many times as you want. There are thousands of lights to see!

⭐️ Parking is available at the top of the hill (by the visitor’s center) or at the church before the display. If both are full when you arrive, just do a few donuts around the display until a spot opens up. People constantly come and go!

⭐️ Weekends and holidays can get busy at this little hilltop. I recommend stopping on a weeknight if you want peaceful vibes. I was there for 2 hours on a Tuesday night and saw 5 other cars… but Saturday after the tractor parade is another story.

⭐️ The display is high up on Dairy Hill Road, which is very challenging to drive in the snow. I do NOT recommend driving up if the roads aren’t clear!

⭐️ The lights are on every night from 4-9 until New Year’s Day. Come snowshoe the historic trails during the day, then stay for sunset and the lights.
