Tips & Advice
- Pre-register before the night, because advance registration is required and all sales are final with no refunds.
- Put the whole family in holiday pajamas, as the evening encourages, and bring a camera for the many chances at holiday family portraits.
- Be in place for Santa's grand entrance on a firetruck, which comes between the two Broward Center Spotlights shows.
- Do the self-guided house tour and Veranda crafts early in the evening, since both wrap up before the event ends.
- If you're a Bonnet House member, buy at the member rate, since members pay less for adult tickets than future members do.
