Expect quite a bit of walking. You will want to see everything, after all! Don't worry about getting hungry; the food pavilion will have lots of options when it's time to take a snack break. Rumor has it, Santa loves this annual event and it's a great place to get a photo with him.
Know Before You Go
- Pets are prohibited, but service dogs are welcome with the appropriate certification.
- Vendors may not be there every day of the show; if you see something good, snap it up!
- Make sure to dress in warm layers. You have to walk from building to building outside.
