Great event, but be prepared for a LONG hike to get there if you drive and try to park. You will very likely have a mile or more walk from where you end up parking.

Go to all the regional recreation centers, they are beautifully decorated. The trees are lovely.

Hi, I am not sure of your families exact dates of visit but if they are here December 7th through the 10th, they can visit the FREE Villages Model Train club's show at the Colony Reg. Rec. Center. Lots of fun for "kids" of all ages and totally FREE!! Trains of all gauges (sizes) will be running. A great time to kick off your Christmas.

Christmas
 
For New Years Eve we do have a party at La Hacienda with a Spanish band and it last until midnight with dinner.

I forgot about this. We used to live in Mt. Dora and were a 10 minute walk to down town. Parking for their events is a challenge. Sometimes homeowners will rent out a parking spot in their driveway but these fill up quickly too.

We hit 29 degrees last Christmas (2022). Certainly cold enough for snow.

Why has no one mentioned, the one consistent Christmas Tradition in TV?


FREE Golf on all the Championship courses.

Just being with family can be the most special.
