Hosted Lunch. For the past 28 years the Candlelight Pavilion has presented 28 original, family-friendly Christmas stories with all the joy and magic you would expect of the holiday season. This year we continue that tradition with a heartwarming story that will surely melt the hardest of hearts. As is our custom, the children are asked to join Santa on stage during the performance. It is there that the true magic of Christmas is found, in the smiling faces and twinkling eyes of those who are wise enough to believe in the miracle of Christmas. At the conclusion of the show there is also a photo opportunity with the big guy himself, so don’t forget your camera. Join us as we celebrate the holidays at the Candlelight Pavilion with love, hope and a little Santa magic!
