This Texas City Will Soon Transform into a Winter Wonderland

Save the Date, El Paso because the “Coolest fest in the Southwest” is coming back to the heart of Downtown El Paso: Winterfest!

Winter magic is about to sprinkle its festive charm all over downtown

On November 23rd, the 2024 El Paso WinterFest kicks off, bringing a whirlwind of twinkling lights, merry moments, and the holiday spirit that’s sure to warm even the chilliest of nights.

WinterFest has been a beloved tradition since 2015, and this year, it’s set to be bigger and brighter than ever.

The festivities begin with a dazzling holiday tree lighting ceremony in San Jacinto Plaza, followed by the Scherr Legate WinterFest Lights Parade and a festive concert afterwards.

Lights, Christmas Trees and Ice Skating!

The most beautiful part of Winterfest is the more than 1 MILLION lights twinkling across downtown, oversized decorations that make you feel like you’ve stepped into a winter wonderland, and of course the 55-foot holiday tree towering over the scene.

Plus, an outdoor ice-skating rink and winter-themed attractions will keep the fun going all season long, right through to January 5, 2025.
