Goldcrest Close Christmas Lights in Newport will mark its 10th anniversary of lighting up the town during the winter festivities.
This will also be the third year in which the lights have raised money for charity - with more than £5,000 going to the Isle of Wight Samaritans, IW Suicide Prevention and Intervention, and the Wessex Cancer Trust.
This year, donations raised will be split between the IW Samaritans and the RSPCA.
The Display will be lit up from 4.30pm to 8.30pm from December 2.
Matthew Whitham has organised the lights for the past decade.
He is excited for people to witness this year's display, while making a request regarding the parking situation.
Matthew said:
"It’s kindly asked if visitors would find alternative parking and visit the display on foot due to restricted parking in the close.
"Visitors are encouraged to use the Fieldfare Road end of Carpet Right car park - just a two minute walk from the display!"
Donations can be made on site.
