The Eureka Springs Christmas Festival In Arkansas That’s Straight Out Of A Hallmark Christmas Movie
Every holiday season, the Hallmark channel releases tons of magical Christmas movies. However, the Hallmark channel isn’t the only place you’ll find whimsical seasonal celebrations. Arkansas’ very own Eureka Springs hosts a yearly yuletide affair that gives the celebrations seen on TV a run for their money.
Celebrating Christmas in a big way, Eureka Springs hosts a month-long fest filled with signature events, glowing lights, and jolly décor.
Filled with Victorian-era buildings, Eureka Springs is one of the most picturesque places to spend the holidays, making it the perfect setting for a Hallmark-style celebration.
The Parade of Lights, Christmas light display at The Great Passion Play, and Christmas tree forest at the Crescent Hotel are among the fest’s most popular festivities.
Decorated storefronts are another hallmark of the fest. And on select nights during the Christmas season, merchants present “living windows,” which come alive with elves, Santa, and other characters.
Like something straight from a Hallmark Christmas movie, Eureka Springs' fest is a true holiday destination. And just like a Hallmark film, you don’t want to miss it!
