Kansas City’s Ultimate christmas guide - 1
Christmas in Kansas City is a truly magical time of year. We're excited about Holiday Reflections at Union Station, Christmas at Crown Center, the Festival of Lights at Powell Gardens, and more. And, it wouldn't be Christmas without enjoying our favorite annual traditions like Kansas City Repertory Theatre's production of A Christmas Carol, a visit with Santa at Crown Center and Rudolph: The Red-Nosed Reindeer at Coterie. Top it off with a visit to see the Fairy Princess, Santa, and other holiday friends, experience a living nativity, and celebrate with a holiday festival. This is your ultimate guide to a Kansas City Christmas!
On Dec. 8, 2023, Kristina Light with KC Parent participated in an interview on KCUR's Up To Date highlighting our Top Picks this Christmas in KC. Listen here.
