Monthlong Christmas Events in the West Valley, off the AZ-303

‘Tis the season for Christmas events, but often we miss them due to various reasons like kids’ performances and sports, work or small group parties or just life. So we put together a local list of Christmas events in the West Valley that happen regularly throughout the month.. and even some through January so you don’t miss out on the awe and wonder of the season.

  • Glendale Glitters & Packer Family Photography “Dancing Nights & Holiday Lights” events
    • Downtown Glendale gets a Christmas makeover every December and drips its trees in the square with dazzling Christmas lights. It also has various performances from local bands, dance groups and more! This year they even have a Giving Machine where instead of buying snacks out of a vending machine, you can give the gift of food, supplies, rent, etc to a person! It’s such a neat concept and worth checking out! Glendale Glitters is open each evening from 5:00-10:00 pm through January 7, 2023.
    • Packer Family Photography is located right in front of Papa Ed’s Ice Cream in Caitlin Court Historic District and they turned their little historic house into a Winter Wonderland and magical north pole experience. Their “Christmas Lights and Dancing Nights” is FREE Family Fun from 5-8pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Her little shop and various vendors make it also a perfect little spot to snag an extra Christmas gift while the littles participate in a craft or kid-friendly experience.
