Tips & Advice
- Check which day features the activities you most want to see, since the lighting, parade and fireworks, and Santa activities are scheduled separately.
- Keep Saturday available for the parade and fireworks, which are listed as that day's featured events.
- Visit on Sunday for Santa photos and holiday activities, rather than expecting those features on every event day.
- Look for event shuttle information to help plan how you'll get around during the festivities.
- Dress warmly for the evening outdoor festivities, and check out participating storefronts in the window design contest.
