Best Places in Sioux City to see Christmas Lights in December 2017


It's almost Christmas, and that means houses and businesses all over the city are lit up with festive displays! Here are our top picks for where to see the best Christmas lights in the Sioux City area. Have a suggestion we missed? Leave a comment here or on the Christmas lights post in the Siouxland Family Friendly Events Facebook group!

Best streets or neighborhoods


  • Cherrywood/Applewood in Morningside: Turn west from S Lakeport onto Applewood Lane, the take a right at the bottom of the hill, and another right onto Cherrywood Lane. Cherrywood is a cul de sac that perenially goes above and beyond with Christmas cheer, and many cars visit it each December, so be prepared to take your time and go slow! Then turn right to leave via S Nicollet, which will take you to Glenn Ave.
  • the Heights/ Grandview Park Rose Garden: I'd suggest starting at Starbucks on Hamilton, then take 24th Street and turn onto W Solway. Take Solway St around to McDonald to go past the Rose Garden, then loop back around to catch East Solway on your way back to Hamilton via Cook St.



Best business, non-profit, or government displays


  • Sioux City Public Museum and downtown: Downtown is full of festive lights, but be especially sure to drive past the public museum on 4th Street to see the city's Christmas tree and some great lights like a big train!

Little Chicago Deli is coming back to Sioux City!

Sioux City's newest eatery isn't actually new--it's just the newest iteration of a classic! Little Chicago Deli is opening in a new location just a couple doors down from the original restaurant, and they're opening on Friday May 31, 2024, for pickup orders and delivery, with the dining lobby opening later in summer 2024. Here's the info we have so far on Sioux City's new Little Chicago Deli: History of Little Chicago Deli Little Chicago Deli has been around Sioux City since 1988 as a locally owned sandwich shop, but unfortunately the previous location closed in 2017. Prior to that, I remember going there in college while I was doing an internship downtown, and I was sad to hear the original closed. But new owners, including some staff from the old Little Chicago Deli, are bringing it back in 2024! The name pays homage to local legends about Sioux City during Prohibition. For starters, Prohibition was widely ignored in Sioux City...
