Perfect for rooflines, windows, trees and other festive displays, our icicle Christmas lights are an easy way to add a classic cascading glow indoors or outside.

Why choose icicle Christmas lights?

Create a classic cascading display

Icicle Christmas lights are designed with strands of different lengths that hang down from the main cable, creating the distinctive look of twinkling icicles. They’re perfect for adding a little extra Christmas magic to rooflines, windows, fences, trees and other areas that need some festive sparkle.

Complete the look with an outdoor Christmas wreath on your front door and browse our outdoor Christmas decorations for more ways to create a coordinated festive display.

Perfect for outdoor rooflines

Icicle Christmas lights are a popular choice for outdoor displays, particularly along rooflines, gutters, porches and windows. Their hanging strands create a bright, eye-catching effect that helps turn your home or business into a Christmas grotto, while LED bulbs provide an energy-efficient way to keep your display shining throughout the festive season.

Add sparkle indoors too

Icicle Christmas lights aren’t just for the outside of your home. Use them around windows, along bannisters or over indoor displays to create a magical cascading effect. Choose from different colours and effects, including snowing and chaser options, to give your Christmas display a little extra movement and sparkle.

How many icicle Christmas lights do I need?

The number of icicle Christmas lights you need depends on the area you want to decorate and how densely you want the display to look. For rooflines, gutters and windows, measure the length of the area you want to cover before choosing your lights, remembering to allow enough cable to reach your power source.

If you’re lighting a Christmas tree as well, you can use our Lights & Decorations Calculator to work out how many lights you need based on the size of your tree.
