These are some of the best Christmas lights in Arizona!

Boasting one of the largest neighborhood Christmas light displays in Arizona, the Coxes are going on their second year in a row of giving Clark Griswold a run for his money.
The family has always enjoyed Christmas lights, starting a collection of their own about six years ago.

It wasn't until 2020, however, that the Cox Family Lights show was officially born in an attempt to lift everyone's spirits during a time of adversity.
With over 35,000 lights synchronized to 15 different festive tunes, the show would be impressive no matter who was doing all the work behind the scenes.

Cox Family Lights is set apart from all other residential displays because it's programmed entirely by teenager Brolin Cox.
Last year, Brolin spent a whopping 30 weeks preparing for the show's big debut, and we don't expect this year to be any different.
