History of the LightsThe Lights of Lobethal have been an intrinsic

part of the community since the early 1950s, when local business owners hand painted light

bulbs with paint, thinned down with turpentine, to decorate their shops and businesses. In the true spirit of Christmas a tradition that has continued for over 60 years began, and has now evolved into the largest Community Christmas Light Display in the Southern Hemisphere. In the early days it was simply a display by local businesses and home owners for the local community to enjoy, but as word spread visitors

began travelling from other towns, and eventually Adelaide and beyond to

see the spectacular displays.
