Every year we chose new places to visit starting in November to add special memories to our Holidays! This year, it will be even more special, since we’ll not be spending the holidays here!
We have added new places to visit but Macy’s has been a Holiday tradition for several years for us! The window unveiling, the special characters, the tastings, crafts, music, and lights bring the early feeling of joy, the feeling of happiness and a wonderful holiday season preview!
Join us at Macy’s in Philadelphia, for great family fun with lots of activities for the holidays! There will be: Crafts tables where you can create holiday ornaments, color, and more; balloon twisting and so much more holiday fun to enjoy!
The holiday season is upon us! Tis the season for Rudolph and cookies for Santa! What are some of your favorite family traditions for the holiday season? Do you watch Charlie Brown with your children like I do? Do you bake and decorate cookies to give out to friends? Does the whole family wear matching pj’s Christmas morning? Do you go take pictures with Santa? This is the time to share your traditions and favorite things to do this holiday season.
Meet us outside on Market Street as we kick off the holidays with Macys 10th annual holiday window unveiling! This is the third one for our family! Santa and his special guests, including Macys Holiday Ambassador – Snoopy, will be on hand to help with the big reveal!
Afterwards, watch the spectacular holiday light show in the Grand Court, always a favorite for us! Take a holiday photo with Macy’s guests, including some of our favorite Philadelphia professional athletes.
Join us on 3 in Greek Hall as we celebrate the 89th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! Enjoy Peanuts activities and enjoy coloring in our very own ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ coloring book! Don’t forget to take a photo next to Snoopy and enter for your chance to be one of ten lucky customers to win a Macy’s gift card! More information:

Macy’s windows always meant Christmas to me also. Growing up outside NYC going in to see the windows was always such a treat. I am excited other cities have these celebrations now too.

Big fun, we wear new pajamas. That is a tradition my mother started and I keep it going for my own family.
We attended the Macy’s holiday event in DC and had an amazing time.
