Fall is drawing to a close, the air is getting cold, and houses are getting decked out in their holiday finest. Whether you’re Saint Nick’s biggest cheerleader or more of a Grinch or Scrooge fan this time of year, there’s no avoiding it – Christmas is on the way, and New Jersey does the holiday in style. Where to celebrate the season like nowhere else, you ask? We think there’s an epic Christmas festival in Morristown, NJ that sums up the season perfectly. Located at the Morristown Green, this Christmas festival is an annual tradition and is packed full of whimsical attractions that turn the town square into a magical Christmas village. There are interactive activities and games, competitions, rides, and even a meeting with the man of the hour himself. The best part? Almost the entire event is absolutely free! So put on your holiday finest and come along with us to discover why Christmas in Morrison is truly magical.

Snow will be falling soon, and Morristown will be decking the halls for their famous Christmas event.
