Tunnel of Joy

The Tunnel of Lights in Brentwood, California is well-known, well-loved, and visited by thousands every year. This community tradition has become one for the Christmas books. Started just nine years ago, it has grown into a dazzling neighborhood display where families come together to create something truly magical—and yes, you must walk the tunnel.

Local legend says that if you walk the entire tunnel, your Christmas wishes gain a special kind of power.

But this display is about more than lights. It’s about supporting the community and helping those in need, especially children living with cancer. Donations are accepted on-site, with all contributions going to a meaningful cause.

So come on out to the Tunnel of Lights—meet the wonderful community behind it, soak in the holiday magic, and take the walk for yourself.
