Market Street in The Woodlands Announces 2018 Holiday Season Events

THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- The holidays are right around the corner, and Market Street-The Woodlands is planning a variety of events and fun for the whole family throughout the entire season.

“With an exciting renovation underway here at Market Street, we wanted to be sure and let our guests know what to expect during the holidays,” said Marketing Director Noemi Gonzalez. “We will have a few changes to the calendar this year, but Market Street will still be a wonderful place to gather with family and friends and enjoy the season.”

Tree Lighting
While there will not be an official “Market Street in Lights” tree lighting event due to restricted access to Central Park, guests can still enjoy the soaring, 70-foot Christmas tree with its synchronized twinkling lights and holiday music.
More than 25,000 multi-colored lights will adorn the tree, which will perform a synchronized light show every hour on the half hour from 5:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. beginning on Friday, November 16. The presentation will continue nightly throughout the holiday season.

Smile with Santa
Who brings lots of Christmas cheer for little boys and girls who have been good all year? Santa Claus himself will be greeting children of all ages as Market Street continues the much-loved holiday tradition of photos with Santa. Children can have their photos taken with jolly ol’ St. Nick beginning Friday, November 16 through Monday, December 24, 2018. Santa Claus is coming to town to share the magic and wonder of the season in space 1270 next to Ideal Image where young visitors may have their photos taken and, of course, whisper their wish list to St. Nick.

Twelve Days of Christmas – Beginning December 1
Guests at Market Street – The Woodlands will feel the spirit of the holiday season as they enjoy activities and performances that mirror the traditional holiday story – the Twelve Days of Christmas.
