CHRISTMAS CAPITAL OF TEXAS
Grapevine is the official “Christmas Capital of Texas” and was ranked Best
Christmas Town by Newsweek Readers during the 2024 Christmas
season. Historic Main Street District and the entire city become festive
just like you’d see in a Hallmark movie. Grapevine is the essence of
Christmas décor as the city becomes blanketed with millions of lights,
enormous decorations, animated characters and a whole lot more!

CAROL OF LIGHTS
Enjoy a Christmas Festival on Historic Main Street in Grapevine. Sing
along with local choirs as the switch is flipped - lighting thousands of
lights along the way. Stroll Main Street for a Christmas festival with
reindeer, photo ops and Santa Claus!

PARADE OF LIGHTS
Join thousands of merrymakers at the largest lighted Christmas parade in
North Texas. An enchanting display of more than 100 colorfully lighted
floats will pass through Grapevine’s Historic Main Street to the tune of
numerous marching bands playing seasonal music. Arrive early to secure
a great spot - the Parade of Lights begins at 7pm.

MERRY AND BRIGHT DRONE SHOWS
There are two free Merry & Bright Drone Shows that will light up the night
sky over Main Street. Watch a fleet of 400 drones turn into Christmas
scenes including elves, trains and there may even be a Santa sighting!
