The Best Permanent Outdoor Lights (2026): Govee, Eufy, Cync

Permanent outdoor lights are the perfect solution to a holiday season's worth of lights, and will last you for years to come. The name suggests exactly what they are: a type of string light designed to stay up all year instead of coming down after the occasion you hung them for, whether it's the holiday season or a big party that inspired you to deck out your front porch.

Whether these lights are truly “permanent” is up to you, since you can choose to anchor them to your home with either screws or adhesive. Note that they may not be a fit for every home's architecture—you will need eaves, and preferably flat ones, to hide the thick cords. Our favorite options are from Govee ($300, 100 feet) and Eufy ($350, 100 feet); both are great sets you can cut and splice to customize to your home's roofline. My favorite affordable set is from Cync ($117, 100 feet)—it's easy to use and install and has lots of great color options.

No matter which set you choose, these lights are made for year-round enjoyment, though they shine best in the holiday season. WIRED reviewer Kat Merck uses hers in the post-holiday season to display her husband’s favorite sports team colors, while I'm currently using mine to backlight the giant spiderweb spread across my balcony for Halloween. We're both looking forward to switching over to Christmas color schemes soon, and you can too after picking up one of our favorite sets below.
