Christmas Reflections In DeFuniak Springs Nov 28 - Dec 31

It's the event of the year in DeFuniak Springs - one of Walton County's most cherished traditions!

Bring the entire family any night of the week or come and stay the weekend in the beautiful, historic DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Come see more than 10 million lights reflect off a perfectly round, spring-fed lake glowing in holiday splendor! Enjoy a holiday family tradition that is a delight to all ages as at Chipley Park with the annual Christmas Reflection displays. A variety of Victorian, animal, and toy soldier cutouts, Santa’s workshop, and the grandfather clock ticking away are among the thousands of decorations that adorn these historic grounds. This event is orchestrated and hosted by the City of DeFuniak Springs. See below for free holiday special events, markets, and the Festival of Trees, which complement this season's light show.
