Arizona's Christmas City
Enjoy the Christmas Season from Thanksgiving to MLK Day
In 1989, then Governor, Rose Mofford, designated Prescott as Arizona’s Christmas City because of our festive lighting ceremony, But, the festivities don't begin and end with just one event. Prescott celebrates with lights, music, and festive flair from November-January. Once you see it, you’ll understand why Prescott is Arizona’s Christmas City! Plan your next Prescott experience around the holidays.
