You can also walk through the marketplace and find handmade Christmas presents for everyone in your family. There is live music from local bands and school choirs performing Christmas carols throughout the night. You can also have loads of fun gliding around the outdoor ice skating rink with your friends and family. Bring your kids to sit on Santa’s lap and tell him what they want for Christmas. After being out in the cold, don’t forget to indulge in some decadent hot chocolate or coffee while admiring all the beautiful lights around the park. There are also warming houses available for when you get too cold.
Holidazzle is a wonderful event to attend with family and friends. You get out of the house and enjoy a beautiful night devouring local foods and getting unique gifts for the holidays. I highly recommend that you attend as there is never a dull moment. For more details of the different events that take place during Holidazzle, visit holidazzle.com
