Along with the cold weather, winter celebrations have arrived in Dallas this December. Although students are gearing up for finals and end-of-year projects, it’s essential to explore the city and have fun before the break. From drinks in a snowglobe on a rooftop to walking around the classic Dallas Arboretum, there are so many ways to celebrate the holiday season all December. Here are four celebrations to participate in this December in Dallas.
Stroll around a winter wonderland at the Dallas Arboretum with Holiday at the Arboretum. Named “Texas’ Best Christmas Event” by Southern Living Magazine, guests are able to walk through holiday gazebos, shops, and nature.
