Do you want to go to a fun Christmas attraction for FREE?  From November through December, Macy’s in downtown Philadelphia is sponsoring a Holiday Light Show and Dickens Christmas Village.  The Holiday Light Show includes Julie Andrews narrating different holiday stories.  The Dickens Christmas Village is a village that you will walk through that will tell the story of Charles Dicken’s novel, “A Christmas Carol.”

The Holiday Light Show tells different Christmas stories that include The Nutcracker, Frosty The Snowman, Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, and Santa Claus is Comin’ To Town. The different lights tell the stories. All the lights including the Big Christmas tree, produce 288,000 watts.

The Dickens Christmas Village tells the story of The Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. While guests walk through the scenes, there are different boards telling the story.   The story tells about the mean, bitter man named Ebenezer Scrooge.  He owns a bank with a fellow partner named Jacob Marley who had died several years before.  Located in London in 1843, Scrooge is visited by 3 ghosts: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Future.  Through each ghost’s lessons, Scrooge sees his mistakes and changes his morals and becomes the most loved man in the village.

So if you and your family want to have some holiday fun come down to Phildelphia for some awesome Christmas attractions.
