Conceived and constructed by Amy and Ben Hanson in an incredible labor of love, Candy Cane Lane made its debut in 2017 to high praise and it instantly became a beloved attraction by children and adults alike. It was clear that this smash hit was destined to become an epic annual holiday tradition.

The Hansons began work on this incredible display back in September, suspending lights from trees, hanging Christmas figures, and building the popular light tunnels that each stretch over 100 feet long.
