'HoCo Holiday Lights' Online Map Available For The 2022 Season
The HoCo Holiday Lights online map can be accessed now for both residential and commercial holiday light displays.

HOWARD COUNTY, MD — The HoCo Holiday Lights online map has launched for the 2022 holiday season. The map highlights residential and commercial holiday light displays. In 2021, more than 80 locations were registered from across the county.
“The initial launch of this tool during the last holiday season demonstrated the need for this exceptional service so that our community can continue the beloved holiday tradition to walk or drive around our neighborhoods and view the festive holiday lights,” Howard County Executive Calvin Ball said. “Instead of wondering where to go, residents can plan their route around Howard County to support all the residents and businesses that are flaunting their holiday spirit. I hope everyone will join in sharing their festive decorating efforts and make a special tradition to tour the bright lights with their family.”
The publicly-driven website provides an address, photos, description of each display, display dates and hours, and any special instructions for that location. To register your home, business or community holiday lights display, click here. To map out a holiday lights drive through Howard County, residents and visitors can search for holiday displays by city, zip code or key word.
