From most of Queen Creek, depending on traffic. Drive times are estimates; check your maps app for live traffic.
Coming from Queen Creek, most drivers head west toward Gilbert on the main east–west roads or use the Loop 202 Santan Freeway, then finish on Warner Road. The venue is at 3015 E Warner Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85296.
Because the drive is a little longer than from other East Valley cities, it is worth leaving with some buffer on Fridays and Saturdays. Your maps app will show the fastest route for that evening.
A walk-through show, not a drive-by.
Queen Creek has a lot of space and a lot of families, but not many places to walk through a Christmas light show. Gilbert's is the closest one built for that, and it is a good reason to make a night of it.
Bring the kids: there is a kids zone with jump fun, Christmas movies, a coloring center and a free ornament craft, and the route is flat and stroller friendly. Hot cocoa and snacks are on site, and most visits take about an hour.
