Zilker Park Christmas Tree, Austin, Texas
Nothing kicks off the holiday season like spinning underneath the Zilker Park Christmas Tree until you feel nauseated and fall over, and drinking a cup of hot chocolate before strolling through the Trail of Lights.
If you’re not an Austinite, you might not know what I’m talking about, but this Christmas display and celebration is well-known beyond the Austin city limits – it’s worth making a trip to the capitol city to check it out.
If you are an Austinite and haven’t ever enjoyed this holiday experience, you’re in luck because the lighting of the tree is Sunday, Dec. 7th and the Trail of Lights opens the following Sunday.
This beauty (pun intended) of this Austin site is what an easy, fun, cheap and all ages friendly environment it is. This seasonal display only comes around once a year, so don’t let it get away from you this holiday.
Hope for cold weather and head down to Austin’s beautiful Zilker Park with friends, family, children or make it a romantic rendezvous with your significant other.

I haven’t ever done this, but I really want to! It looks amazing! Back home there is a place called Santa Land that is similar to this and it is incredible! I love this time of year!
