Christmas in St. Louis 2024

Let your kids have creative fun at Yucandu Art Studio over winter break! There will be multiple projects for each child to make using a variety of materials.

Catch a fun story time with the Grinch before he steals Christmas! The Grinch is making a special stop at The Magic House for some holiday fun. There will be laughter, holiday cheer, and a little mischief as the Grinch himself reads "How the Grinch Stole Christmas."

Drop off your kids for these gift workshops and they'll become creative little elves! Each child participating in Gift Workshops will make and wrap three fantastic gifts you are sure to love. No peeking!

Step into the magic of the holiday season with COCA’s Ballet Eclectica as they bring The Nutcracker to life! Follow our heroine and her Nutcracker Prince as they journey through a St. Louis-inspired wonderland, battling the mischievous Mouse King and encountering characters brought to life by the landmarks we all know and love.

Don't miss Ferguson's Winter Wonderland featuring Santa & Mrs. Claus, The Grinch, carolers, balloon twisters, a vendor village, hot chocolate, lots of lights, and more holiday fun!

Bring your whole family for a festive holiday experience at the Saint Louis Zoo. Santa will be the guest of honor with treats for the kids and a delicious meal for everyone. Plus, there will be photos with Santa and other costumed characters, a free gift for children ages 12 and under, and admission to Wild Lights!

Join in on lighting up the Wildwood Town Center Plaza with a Tree Lighting Ceremony, enjoy visits with Santa, shopping from local vendors, and stay warm by the fire pits while you make s'mores!
