What are some holiday events in New York?
New York can really lift up the night sky with fabulous holiday lights and festivities. Here are a few holiday events in New York that you should put on your calendar:
- Holiday Lights, New York City, NY: The Bronx Zoo has one of the most popular holiday events in NY. With an incredible display of illuminated animals that seem to come alive with light. There are five lantern "safaris" to explore at the zoo representing many different continents and regions, including a beautiful undersea world. The event starts in mid-November and lasts through the first week in January.
- Holiday Village Stroll, Lake Placid, NY: Lake Placid is a beautiful Christmas town with festive shops decorated for the holidays and Christmas lights all throughout the town. Head to Whiteface Mountain for its annual Skiing Santa event - if you wear a full Santa outfit you ski for free! There is also a Makers Mart with holiday decor and gifts galore. Or, you can go on the Jungle Bell Run 5k around Mirror Lake. There are numerous other activities during Holiday Village Stroll as well.
- Festival Of Lights, Hamburg, NY: Not too far from Buffalo is another holiday event that will treat you to a whole lot of holiday cheer. Hamburg's fairgrounds transform into a winter wonderland with an elf village, a toy shop, cookie decorating, Santa's Christmas Express train ride, and, of course, thousands of twinkling lights that shine merry and bright. There are two options to enjoy the show - a drive-thru-only portion or a walk-and-drive combo that lets you see all that they have to offer.
