You can't miss the giant "RVA" sign in bright letters on the roof or all the inflatables on the porch roof at 3209 Hanover Ave. The house has Darth Vader, a Yeti, a reindeer, a snowman, Will Ferrell's "Elf" character and lots more. Plus the string lights across the sidewalk make it feel like snow.

3330 Hanover Ave., Museum District
Museum District home covered in LED lights synced to holiday music. Using computer graphics tools and 5000 LEDs, the light show covers the front of the row-home and sidewalk tree. The display changes colors and patterns based on holiday music. If you don’t hear the music, a song or clap of the hands will activate the lights.
