Sabina Carr, Dallas Arboretum President, and CEO shared,“As we celebrate a decade of holiday traditions at the Arboretum, it's incredible to see how far we've come. From the debut of The 12 Days of Christmas in 2014 to the introduction of the Christmas Village in 2019, our holiday offerings have continued to evolve while keeping the magic that families have come to love. This year, we honor those memories while offering new experiences that build on the joy of past seasons.”
The 12 Days of Christmas:
The 12 Days of Christmas, now celebrating its 10th anniversary, remains a cherished event centerpiece. These 25-foot-tall displays, inspired by the verses of the classic carol, combine music, animation, and lighting to bring the song to life. Each gazebo acts like a giant music box, captivating guests during the day and transforming into a glowing wonderland at night.
The Christmas Village:
In 2019, the holiday tradition expanded with the addition of the Pauline and Austin Neuhoff Christmas Family Village, a festive recreation of a European Christmas Market. Complete with charming shops, live entertainment, twinkling trees, and the iconic Marilyn and Ben Weber Family Christmas Pyramid, the Village has become an essential part of the Arboretum's holiday experience. This year, the Village will feature the largest selection of local vendors yet, offering unique gifts and treats. Plus, guests can enjoy photos with Santa on select dates, making it a magical experience for all ages.
Holiday at the DeGolyer House:
Guests are also invited to explore the historic DeGolyer House, which has hosted a new themed holiday exhibit each year, bringing fresh inspiration to the season. This year, A Della Robbia Holiday theme debuts, blending the artistic legacy of Luca Della Robbia's terracotta sculptures with handcrafted holiday decorations inspired by Colonial Williamsburg. Curated by designer Michael Hamilton, the exhibit transports guests to a world where 15th-century Florence meets timeless American tradition.
Throughout the season, Holiday at the Arboretum includes live performances every Thursday through Sunday in the Christmas Village, as well as special events like holiday teas, dinners, and more. Guests are encouraged to check the Arboretum's website and social media channels for the latest schedules and event updates.
Tickets range from $13 to $35 and are required for garden entry, with early reservations recommended. For more information, visit .
