While we may not have snow-capped mountains or frozen lakes you can skate on, here are five ways you can get your jingle on this holiday season in and around Downtown Miami:

1. Hop aboard the Polar Express via Brightline at the MiamiCentral Station and take a magical one-hour trip set to the sounds of the motion picture soundtrack to the North Pole and meet Santa. Passengers will receive hot chocolate and shortbread cookies while reading along to the classic children’s book. More information and details can be found here: http://bit.ly/3V4oPuU

2. Let your inner sugar plum fairy fly and take in the latest rendition of a holiday favorite, The Nutcracker, brought to you by the Miami City Ballet from December 16 – 24, 2022 at the Ziff Opera House at the Adrienne Arsht Center. Meet the company and purchase tickets here: http://bit.ly/3Vkh6sC

3. No one will care if you were naughty or nice this year at the 5th annual Ugly Sweater Bar Crawl in Brickell. Grab a group of friends and throw on that sweater your grandma got you five years ago and purchase your tickets here: https://bit.ly/3GG2BLv

4. Beginning December 8th, The Wharf Miami will be kicking off its Riverside Holiday Village with a special holiday bar, oversized decorations and more than 100,000 holiday lights. RSVP for free or view and purchase table options here: https://bit.ly/3gyuYkb

5. Celebrate the season with light as Vizcaya decorates the way it did over a century ago with garland strung from the balconies and inside the Courtyard. Enjoy lights, music and a gingerbread house competition from 6-9 p.m. on Dec. 14 and 15. For more information and tickets visit: https://bit.ly/3VHNaHm
