We typically experience a mild winter season, but chilly weather is no surprise. Stay warm with these indoor attractions and museums.
Dazzling Arts
Enjoy holiday performances by Amarillo’s finest. Amarillo Little Theater, one of the nation’s oldest continuously-operating theaters, is putting on Elf the Musical–don’t miss it!
The Amarillo Opera also presents the Three Redneck Tenors Christmas Special this year. The music doesn’t stop there though, join the Amarillo Symphony for their Happy Holiday Pops performance.
Holiday Lights
The most wonderful time of the year would not be complete without holiday lights and Santa! Enjoy over 20 attractions at Maxwell’s Magical Christmas and meet the man in red yourself, snap a photo, and make those last-minute wish requests.
Amarillo Botanical Garden’s Christmas in the Gardens is also a local favorite. See over 400,000 lights, carolers, Santa, and even The Grinch!
If it’s too cold out, hop in the car, grab some hot cocoa and drive down Candy Cane Lane. Head down Gainsborough Road near Westgate Mall to view thousands of lights and traditions.
