Great atmosphere around the holidays with beautiful sights, delicious eats, and fun ice skating rink! Make sure you go slightly after the season is over to take advantage of the reduced crowd size (between Christmas and New Years is best). Enjoy!
Absolutely loved it here! The vendors were super sweet & personable!!! Lots to peruse and a bit crowded in the evening a couple weekends before Christmas. I have to say everyone in the crowd was friendly & patient. The holiday spirit was EVERYWHERE! We visited at about 10am and then returned at about 7pm to visit shops that were not yet open in the morning.
I visited here for the holiday market and the crowds were so intense it made the whole experience unpleasant. If there were no crowds it would be 3 stars because the vendors, while great, are so overpriced you end up just looking at everything and wishing it wasn’t so expensive! Decorations and festivities are nice but not worth battling through the crowds.
I'm so lucky to be here for the Christmas tree lighting up event. There are lots of small vendors selling different things. I'm fortunate to catch the event with a skating show performed by world class winners. Overall a great experience here.
Winter village was set up very nicely. For beginner ice skaters they have characters with handle to help build skills. Clean and a fun event with lots of fun food and shops. Definitely do your research before you go as there are many options and it can get crowded. A little difficult if you have a stroller etc. To maneuver through the various paths.
Great place to get in the holiday spirit. There is an outdoor skating rink, a massive Christmas Tree, beautiful little Christmas Market Stands, eateries and a great rink side bar with hot toddies. We also loved the little geodesic domes, we saw a couple having a picnic in one of them! So charming and romantic ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This place is magical at Christmas! However, it is also so crowded!!! Better option to go ice skating than Rockerfeller Center! Great place to grab yummy foods, snacks and hot chocolate. There are so many local artisans selling their goods here as well. There is a gorgeous tree as well. Did I say how crowded it was? 🎅🤣 Really a fun little spot but my advice is go during a weekday, not on the weekends! It's really so busy.
As Christmas season in the city begins, I was walking through the area and couldn’t pass the chance to see the holiday market. All the booths were set up and the ice skating rink is ready for skaters. It was a cold night and they were giving away samples of hot chocolate. Plenty of places to sit if you get tired. The night I was there they were lighting the tree. One of the many great things the city has to offer.
