Some visitors asked last year how you create a display like our ... well apart from a lot of time there are a bunch of companies and people to thank including:

auschristmaslighting.com - The Australian online forum for christmas lights enthusiasts. Those wanting to build these sorts of displays should start here. The members here are incredibly helpful.
http://xlights.org - The software that creates the show
http://falconchristmas.com - The software that runs the show
http://arduino.cc, http://pixelcontroller.com, https://beagleboard.org and https://www.raspberrypi.org/ - The microcontrollers and microcomputers that the show runs on
https://www.aliexpress.com/store/701799 - The source of most of the pixel lights

Our lights for 2016 will turn on on Friday December 2nd and Stay on until the evening of December 30. They are on from about 8pm until 10:00pm sun-third with extended hours on Friday/sat and nearer to Christmas.

Given the small size of Karinya Place we ask that people park and come on foot when it is busy.

As it was last year our lights are set to music with a song playing every 2 minutes. For now we have 4 songs on rotation but that will likely change. For those in the car the music is on FM 105.2 when you are close to the house.

New this year are minitrees, snowflakes and a 5m tall pixel tree. Photos and videos will go up in the next few days.

If you are coming to see the lights tonight make sure you watch the matrix as the picture on it changes. The whole sequence takes about 8 minutes.

These are our lights for 2014. The matrix is more spectacular in real life. It is so bright that in the video it is hard to see my personal favourite scenes are Santa with his sleigh and reindeer and Santa and the Christmas tree.

Our christmas lights display for this year.
