FAMILY ATTRACTIONS / ARIZONA’S CHRISTMAS CITY

Officially garnering the title of “Arizona’s Christmas City” in 1962, Prescott is celebrating more than four decades as the state’s holiday host. The city is ablaze with strings of lights, while the scent of cinnamon and hot cider fills the crisp air already charged with expectation of Santa around the next corner. In the words of Sunset Magazine, “The seasonal spirit runs thicker than pickup-truck traffic in this former territorial capital.” The crown jewel of historic Arizona, the Prescott Courthouse Plaza, is the focal point of many holiday events and the center of activity. Fine shopping, cozy restaurants, lively saloons, and wonderful decorations herald the season in style. Special events that mark the season include the Arizona Holidays Fine Art and Craft Show, the Annual Gingerbread Village at Prescott Resort, the Holiday Light Parade on the Square, and the annual Christmas Parade and Courthouse Lighting.
