Must see: The iconic Christmas lights of Franklin Road

Taking a trip to see the famous Franklin Road Lights is a must for many Auckland families at Christmas.

For over 20 years the stunning houses on this leafy Ponsonby street have adorned themselves in lights and delighted the thousands of people that come to soak in the festivities.

With carolers, twinkling lights and tonnes of Christmas cheer, the Franklin Road Lights are a fantastic way to spend the evening.

The lights will be on every night leading up to Christmas, and the best time to visit is between 8:30pm – 11pm.

It’s recommended that you walk the street instead of driving because the traffic is bumper to bumper at this time.

Homes to Love was there to check out some of the magic.
