The holiday season begins this November with season favorites like the Argosy Christmas Ship Festival, Macy’s Holiday Parade, the Holiday Carousel at Westlake Park and Winterfest. Visitors from near and far can begin mapping out their holiday plans on November 1 with the launch of the official Holidays in the City website, DowntownHolidays.com.
