Arab’s Christmas in the Park
Every year on the day after Thanksgiving, Arab City Park is transformed into Christmas in the Park, a festive and over-the-top display of holiday magic. Brought to you by the City of Arab and Arab Parks & Recreation, Christmas in the Park is one of the most magical displays you’ll find anywhere in the State. Thousands will travel to Arab just to stroll through this enchanting wonderland, where frame-worthy photo ops are literally everywhere you look.
The 31st annual Christmas in the Park holiday festivities get underway on November 28 with the “Lighting Ceremony” at 5:15 p.m. Enjoy live music by the Arab Jazz Band while special guests do the honors as more than two million lights set Arab City Park aglow. A variety of food trucks are scheduled throughout the season.
