Christmas lights in Arcola
Professional Christmas light installers in Arcola
Arcola is a town that knows how to put on an event, and its historic downtown and the Victorian and Craftsman homes nearby carry that same spirit into December. A professional warm white roofline with porch garland on one of those houses, or a clean outline on a newer north-side home, fits a town where people genuinely drive around to see the lights.
We're about 32 minutes down I-57 from our Champaign base, and Arcola anchors our southern Douglas County route with Tuscola. Every install includes design, commercial-grade lights, free maintenance, January takedown and storage.
Whether you're looking for a Christmas light company, a Christmas light hanging service or full holiday light installation, every Arcola install follows our five-step full-service process: we design the layout for your home, install commercial-grade LED C9 lights on custom-cut lines with roof-safe clips, maintain the display at no charge all season, take it down in January, and store it until next year.

Local knowledge
We know Arcola's homes
In the historic district, bulb spacing follows Victorian gables and Craftsman porches, with garland on the rails and a wreath on the door. North Arcola's newer ranches and two-stories take a full C9 outline with lit landscape beds. The brick ranches of the 1960s and 70s look best with a single clean roofline and lit shrubs. Farmhouses toward Arthur and Chesterville add fence lines and barn rooflines that show from Route 133.
Weather note for Arcola: Arcola is open prairie on every side, and winter wind across the fields is constant. We use tight clip spacing on exposed rooflines and anchor every peak and corner.

Our lights were amazing. Lights were done quickly and efficiently. When the season was over he was back to take them down just when he said he would. We have had him put our lights up for several years and will continue to! Highly recommended.

We just had our lights installed by Midwest Holiday Lighting on Thanksgiving day. We just called them and let them know we would like them to do our light install and they worked us in quickly. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and patient. We love the holiday lighting they installed on our house and will use them for years to come. They provided all the materials, completed the install quickly, and will store the lights for us during the off season. I added the wreath last minute and they had all the supplies to install it. We could not be happier with Tom and his crew and the job they did installing our lights. Thank You Midwest Holiday Lighting for making our holidays feel more merry and our home look brighter! Enjoy!
