Each year I plan on taking Charlie to Holiday Events in DFW although something always happens. Even though I hate to say it it seems we aren’t able to attend the events I would like to do with Charlie.
Here we are again being the end of October and I have put together a list of Holiday events happening from October through December in Dallas/ Fort Worth.
These events are ones I would like for my family to visit. I believe your family would enjoy these Holiday events as well. If I’m able to attend them I will come back an share our experiences with you.
For my family the event I would like to attend the most is Magical Winter Lights in DFW. There are other Holiday events happening in our area I would like to check out as well.
If I missed events happening around DWF for the Holiday’s you think should be on this list leave me a comment and I will get the new events added as quickly as possible.
November 17 – January 7 Lone Star Park Grand Prairie: Magical Winter Lights is the most prominent lantern festival in the US, a multicultural take on the traditional Chinese lantern festival, bursting with color, cultural performances, food, and fun.
Charlie wanted me to let you know at the Magical Winter Lights there are carnival rides and games, too!
