The holidays are arriving early in Oxford this year with Visit Oxford MS’ “Christmas in June” campaign, providing a sneak peek to the fifth annual Holly Jolly Holidays with new programming and even more ways to enjoy the season.
With festive decorations at mTrade Park, which will host the new Walk of Lights this winter, and a social media giveaway offering Holly Jolly Holidays passes and accommodations at a local hotel, the “Christmas in June” campaign invites residents and visitors alike to make holiday memories this year in Oxford.
“The new Walk of Lights is the perfect addition to Holly Jolly Holidays, now in its fifth year with even more ways to make memories with loved ones in Oxford,” said Kinney Ferris, executive director of Visit Oxford. “Oxford is a truly special place every holiday season and we’re thrilled to expand Holly Jolly Holidays this year, from a magical tunnel of lights and ice skating to the charming decorations all around The Square.”
New this year, Holly Jolly Holidays will introduce the Walk of Lights, a dazzling display of custom-designed illuminations that pays homage to Oxford’s history, from the famous Double Decker Bus to the Oxford skyline. Taking place November 23 through January 5, the Walk of Lights will transform mTrade Park’s northwest fields and more into a wonderland of twinkling lights complete with a walk-through tunnel of lights, hot chocolate, s’mores kits, cookies and more.
Oxford’s beloved ice-skating rink will also join the festivities at mTrade Park this year, offering one central location for families to experience the magic of the holidays with the Walk of Lights and ice skating.
