Don’t forget, Santa is still in town before he heads to the North Pole! You can catch him for the last time on Sunday, December 22nd from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Plus, enjoy free digital holiday portraits on Santa’s sleigh on Saturday, December 21st from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Simply look for our photographer by Santa’s sleigh, and your portraits will be emailed to you.

Want to capture the magic yourself? Our Candy Cane Lane provides a great backdrop, along with the gingerbread village for the little ones, Santa’s sleigh, and a Santa Paws photo op for your furry friends (located next to 4mydogs).

There’s plenty to explore and enjoy at the Winter Village & Holiday Market. So come on down, grab a hot cocoa, and take a stroll. And feel free to stop by our BID Chalet for any questions!
