Picture
The holidays are an amazing time to get together with family. Spending time at home catching up and eating good food has always been important this time of year.  But this month can include a multitude of different types of family time. Weekend trips to Sedona can be full of amazing adventures but during the winter months, sometimes the best adventures are not hikes or nature walks. While the Sedona area is known for its natural beauty, the city of Sedona also puts on an amazing variety of events throughout the year. The holidays are an especially busy time in Sedona. The variety of holiday events includes performances, movie showings, and candle lighting. The Tlaquepaque Village hosts two different events every year and both are incredibly popular with locals and visitors alike.
One of the most highly anticipated events this year in the Sedona area is the The Nutcracker. Put on by the Sedona Chamber Ballet, this performance is coming up soon. On Dec 2nd and 3rd The Phoenix Ballet will perform in Sedona. Tickets are still on sale and many volunteer positions are open as well. The community of Sedona is full of volunteers who make events like this possible.


One of the events going on right now at the Tlaquepaque Village is their Tree Trail. From November 24th to December 2nd, the village is home to over twenty different Christmas trees. All of the trees have been decorated by the talented staff at Tlaquepaque. The trees create a trail that winds its way through the shops and exhibits. At the end of the event, the trees will be sold in a raffle benefiting Toys for Tots. With hot chocolate offered on site, this is the perfect event to get into the holiday spirit.
The Festival of Lights is one of the most highly anticipated events the Tlaquepaque offers during the holiday season. This event began 45 years ago and is currently held on December 9th. At exactly 5:00 pm, the bell tolls and the lighting of 6000 luminarias begins. Tlaquepaque’s courtyards and walkways are full of the twinkling lights. The event features live music both before and after the lighting. Free cider will also be offered.
The other annual event hosted by Tlaquepaque is the Sweet Stroll. On December 16th, the village will be the perfect spot to bring children and experience holiday cheer. Tlaquepaque’s vendors will be offering sweets, discounts, and giveaways until 7 pm. One of the main attractions at this event will be the strolling carolers. Many of Sedona’s finest stores and boutiques are found in Tlaquepaque, making this event ideal for last-minute gift shopping. For those who have loved ones who don’t enjoy material gifts, the area is also full of award-winning restaurants which offer gift cards; a promise of future together time is often the best present.

A weekend away can also be an early present all by itself. Local hotels, such as the Southwest Inn at Sedona, offer amazing comfort at adorable prices. The staff can also offer tips on other activities Sedona has to offer.
