Or drive through three miles of lights and whimsical displays at Holiday Lights on the Hill at Chandler Park, 6500 W. 21st St.

Tuesday
Shoppers can pick up cupcakes, clothing, books and dog treats when Deco District Pop-Up Shops open Tuesday. And on Wednesday nights during the event, Santa will be there.
