About Yardgazing

The traditions worth keeping are usually close to home.

Yardgazing is for the family night out that starts with a familiar house, a cup of hot chocolate, and a reason to see what is around the next corner.

It started in Acworth

A family tradition, made easier to find.

Yardgazing was founded by Conrad in Acworth, Georgia. Every Halloween, his family gets in the car to revisit the houses they know and discover the ones they have not found yet. At Christmas, they do it again, often with hot chocolate and friends along for the ride.

It is free, simple, and the kids talk about it for weeks. They look forward to it every year. That is the feeling Yardgazing is built to help more families find and make their own.

It is also a thank you to the people behind the lights, displays, and hometown events. Many pour time, creativity, and their own resources into passion projects simply because they love seeing their community gather. Yardgazing is built to help them be discovered, appreciated, and supported for the joy they create.
