Downtown Mesa transforms into a holiday wonderland for its annual Merry Main Street celebration. Families can admire the towering Christmas tree, browse holiday shops, enjoy seasonal entertainment, and skate on a real outdoor ice rink beneath the desert sky. Opening night also features the Christmas tree lighting and a holiday market.
Celebrate the season against the spectacular backdrop of the Superstition Mountains! Apache Junction’s annual Holiday Event & Light Parade brings neighbors together for family-friendly activities followed by a festive procession of illuminated floats. With free admission and a welcoming small-town atmosphere, it’s a lovely way to spend a December evening.
Inspired by European Christmas markets, this downtown celebration combines holiday shopping with live music and seasonal treats. Browse handcrafted gifts from local artisans, find something special for loved ones, and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Children can ride the Mesa Santa Express, making this a delightful outing for the whole family.
