The Magical Place In Indiana Where It’s Christmas Year-Round
The magic of Christmas might seem to come around only once a year, but some spots keep the magic alive all year round. While some states have stores or buildings dedicated to celebrating Christmas year round, we’re lucky enough to have an entire town devoted entirely to Christmas.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date.
