Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights

The history of this display goes back to Little Rock Arkansas in 1986, when businessman Jennings Osborne (below) strung up 1000 red lights for his 6-year-old daughter.

The display grew every year, so much so that-- by the time it reached 3 million lights-- the neighbors took legal action! Luckily the whole thing moved to Disney World. Now guests enjoy 5 million lights in on trees, carousels, Mickey, Santa, and lots more, plus “Florida snow”.
