Twelve years ago Chandler Boulevard was dim, dark and drab during the holiday season. The white light holiday display originally started by Del Webb Corporation was put to rest and only the glow of streetlights lit up the areas. Seeing a need to resurrect the light display, a group of homeowners from Club West and the Foothills formed, "The Festival of Lights", a non-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation. Since 1996, Chandler Boulevard has been aglow with holiday white lights.
From Thanksgiving until the New Year, Chandler Boulevard from 24th Street to Desert Foothills Parkway is illuminated with more than a million white lights. Our incredible desert landscape is decked out with miniature white lights and with clusters of white strands high amongst the treetops. This signature event in the Ahwatukee Foothills really lights up the community! Even tour buses have been known to detour to our area to see the spectacular display. The display can be seen nightly from 5:30pm to 11pm starting November 29, 2008 until January 1, 2009.
