Welcome to the home of Dernancourt Delights!
Dernancourt Delights is an annual Christmas Light & Laser Show setup each December for the community of North-Eastern Adelaide, South Australia.
Check us out on the National Christmas Lights Search page where we won most voted display in Australia in 2019. We also won 1st prize in the Tea Tree Gully Council competition in 2023 and also in 2020.
We use our Facebook site to provide the most up to date information on any snap closures or changes to display times or events.
We like to think of our display as a merging of Christmas Lights display with your local Nightclub atmosphere. Full colour lasers, pop music and smoke machines are plentiful!
Open Dates: Sunday 1st December 2024 through to Christmas Night 25th December 2024 inclusive. Lights are finished Christmas night so plan early!
Open Times: Around 8:30pm to 10:30pm nightly with a later closure on Friday and Saturday nights depending on foot traffic at the time.
Location: Karingal Rd Dernancourt SA 5075 - it's the southern end of Karingal Rd near the corner of Yaralinda St and Lutana Grove.
Charity For those looking to support our chosen Charity, we support Make-A-Wish who grant life-changing wishes to seriously ill children.
This year marks the 10th Anniversary of our support for Make-A-Wish and to date we have raised almost $27,000 for their cause. 100% of all donations go directly to our charity.
We accept donations of cash/coins in our onsite spinner wishing well.
No cash? No worries - we also accept online donations or EFTPOS donations on site. Just see our attendant on site.
All operational and running costs of the display are borne by the owners of the display.
Corporate Sponsors: We sincerely thank Vanessa Bianco from Ray White Norwood, our local area Real Estate Expert for her support.
Her support contributes to covering our infrastructure costs. Check out Vanessa's Real Estate profile if you are looking to buy or sell property in the NE Suburbs.
We also wish to provide a huge shout out to John Wark & Son Scaffolding. They have constructed an amazing driveway arch system to really showcase the entrance to our display.
Having personally wrapped our entire house in one of their scaffolds during 2024 for major roof and gutter renovations, we can attest to the quality and co-operation delivered by Mitch, Louis and their crew. We highly recommend them for first class cost-effective scaffolds.
Pets: We do not allow pets on any part of the property so please leave your furry friend at home.
Refreshments: We offer soft-drink cans and ice-creams at reasonable prices with 100% of all profits going to Make-A-Wish
Are we a 'Drive By' Display?As over 50% of our display cannot be seen from driving past, we recommend you park and come inside the property.
That way your family get to truly appreciate the experience presented, particularly our Santa's Workshop in the garage.
Have a great Christmas everyone.
