Visit Utah’s Christmas Town For The Most Enchanting Night Ever
Helper, Utah is a small town of fewer than 2,000 residents. Just north of Price, this little town is a quiet, peaceful place to live. But every winter, it turns into a bustling holiday venue – Utah’s very own Christmas Town. Make plans to visit this weekend for the big kickoff!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
Utah's Christmas Town goes all out for the holiday season. Main Street is decked out in twinkle lights throughout December, turning this adorable town into the most magical place ever.
...and Helper's businesses get into the holiday spirit, too. The Main Street lighting ceremony took place on November 24th, so you'll want to visit soon.
The biggest event of the season is the Electric Light Parade, happening this weekend. Arrive early so you can eat at the Chili Dinner before the parade. It's offered on Friday, December 1st and Saturday, December 2nd from 4 PM to 7 PM.
A lot of work goes into the floats at this parade, and every year a winning float is chosen. Last year's winner was the Sandoval & Mitchell families' float. Who will win this year?
Dress in your coziest, warm clothing and stake out a spot for the parades! They run for two nights in a row: Friday, December 1st and Saturday, December 2nd at 7 PM.
