Whether it’s Santa or the strudel, the toy train depots or dollhouses, the 45th annual Southern Christmas Show has become a holiday tradition featuring tastings, shopping and more.

The show’s “Olde Town” shopping village hosts more than 50 purveyors of decorations, ornaments, accessories, clothing and collectibles. Vendors also offer wine tastings, artisan cheeses, gourmet oils, roasted nuts and a huge favorite – fresh strudel.

The Holiday Entertainment stage highlights events ranging from holiday fashions and home decorations to puppet shows, quick and festive makeup tricks and a variety of choral, instrumental and dance ensembles.

A free coat check is available at the entrance and a free package check is available in the central lobby.

Valet parking is available for $18 (cash only); notify the police officers directing traffic if you want to park valet. (There are often spots available even if the main parking lot is full.)
