Notenoughlights
400,000+ twinkly lights
Beam of light in the air from all the lights, like moths to a flame..
In all seriousness, word of mouth, having a website/google presence (tourist attraction set on google etc helps) and submitting on all/as many event forms run by local councils/businesses as possible.

Wanted to do that but makes it difficult being in the flight path of our airport. Ill try the local forums though.

I promote in the local Facebook groups. That seems to be enough.
The crowds come in waves. First the young kids, then older kids as the night goes on.

Unless you're using lasers, you should be fine. Check with ATC though.
Most Moving Heads don't reach more than a hundred or so metres into the sky.
I've previously used 2kW sky beams at Sydney Airport for a virgin gig, no one batted an eyelid, which blow 300W MH's out of the water

4th year, no advertising and I get maybe a couple visitors a night. Not sure as it is cold and I do not monitor. A bunch of locals at this point and some word of mouth.
What's the motivation for the lights? The lights are for me, and no one else. If someone else can enjoy them it makes me happy. I had a Mom and two little girls want to thank me last time which was very heart warming. In the 4 years I've talked to maybe a handful of visitors. They are scurry off for some reason whenever someone exits the house or pulls up into the driveway.
Too many people showing up brings a lot of extra problems to deal with.
As for advertising, it might be a bit old fashioned but you can use flyers posted at local places and perhaps local schools. Kids wanting to see flashing lights are a great motivator to come to a show sometimes.

I live in a rural area on a dirt road and then a 400 foot gravel driveway. So the only traffic I get is just neighbors who pass by on their way home. However, last year one of the neighbors and their children stopped by and commented how much they enjoyed the lights. Will be honest that it felt good to hear that.
I enjoy decorating the house and use it as a means to express my faith in Jesus Christ
So if that brings joy to me and the neighbors and anyone else who may see the display, whether that is a few folks or many, it has served its purpose
Merry Christmas
