Even The Grinch Would Marvel At The Tlaquepaque Christmas Light Display In Arizona

We Arizonans firmly believe holiday festivities steeped in tradition are the best kinds by far. At Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village in Sedona, you'll find just that and much more. Between thousands of luminarias, a majestic tree, themed treats, and pictures with Santa - even the Grinch would enjoy this uniquely Arizonan way of celebrating the season. The best Christmas lights in Arizona are here - and they're the legendary Tlaquepaque Christmas Lights.

Each year, the already magical Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village transforms into an even more enchanting winter wonderland.

Nearly a full month of festivities includes shopping, lights, holiday treats, caroling, and so many more merry and bright happenings.

Before you've even entered the marketplace, a massive tree can be seen commanding the courtyard.

Marvel at its grandiosity through the archway and feel the holiday cheer begin to grow. For the past five decades, a whopping 6,000 luminarias have been set ablaze as a deeply cherished Sedona tradition.

Carolers take to the streets and sing all your favorite festive tunes.

Dressed in Dickens-era attire from head to toe, just looking at them is enough to get you in the holiday spirit.

Classic holiday characters, like the infamous Grinch, can be spotted around every corner.

Luckily, his heart has already returned to normal size, so Christmas isn't in danger of being stolen this year. Probably.

Of course, the big man in red will make regular appearances, accompanied by Mrs. Claus and his trusty, hardworking elves.

Adults and tiny tots alike will be itching to whisper their Christmas wishes in his ear.

Photo-ops are everywhere you look, offering the perfect backdrops for family Christmas cards.

Snap a picture in this life-sized ornament to forever commemorate your time in the village.

How gorgeous is this scene? A picture-perfect holiday evening, for sure.
