How much does professional Christmas lighting typically cost for a small shopping center or restaurant row, and can that budget be shared among multiple tenants?
Quick Answer
There isn’t a standard price for Christmas lighting on a small shopping center or restaurant row because Lights Over Atlanta custom-designs every commercial display—but it’s easy for owners and tenants to pool their budget, and a custom quote only takes a few minutes once they review your site and goals.
Detailed Answer
Professional Christmas lighting for a small shopping center or restaurant row is always priced on a custom basis. Instead of preset packages, Lights Over Atlanta designs each project around your specific property, the number and type of businesses, and the kind of holiday experience you want for guests. Once we have a few details, photos, or a quick site walkthrough, we can usually provide a custom quote in just a few minutes.
Several factors can affect the scope, complexity, and final cost:
- Building frontage and layout – A straight line of storefronts is simpler than mixed heights, corners, and towers that require more lights and more lift work.
- Areas you want lit – Just outlining rooflines is different from also highlighting windows, awnings, façades, walkways, parking-lot entrances, and monument signs.
- Trees, landscaping, and patios – Wrapping trees, framing planters, and adding bistro or string lights over outdoor dining areas adds materials and time.
- Design style and décor level – A clean, warm-white outline is less involved than layered color patterns, wreaths, garlands, and large feature pieces.
If multiple tenants share the property, Lights Over Atlanta can quote the project as one unified display so the landlord and tenants can easily decide how to split the budget among themselves.
