It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

At Woodleaf Realty, we could not be more excited for the Christmas season. Glittering lights, falling snow, holiday cheer, fresh-cut trees…what’s not to love?

The holidays are a big deal in the Pikes Peak region; new residents will soon find that many events are happening all over the city in December. So whether it’s date night or a family outing, grab your hats and coats for an evening of Christmas celebration in Colorado Springs!

Skate in the Park

The west side of Acacia Park is turning into a 4,675 square-foot ice rink this season! Skate with family and friends from November 14 until January 15 (times vary depending on the day).

Cost: $10 (includes skates); kids under 4 are free with a paying adult

Winter Lights At The Broadmoor Seven Falls

There might not be a more romantic or magical spot than the Broadmoor at Christmas time. Begin the evening with a viewing of the multi-colored Seven Falls light display (a tradition that began in 1947). Then head over to The Broadmoor for a warm beverage or cocktail by the crackling fire.

Cost: Free with park admission

Visits With Santa

Don’t forget to grab your 2017 photo with Santa and tell him what you want for Christmas! As always, Santa and his helpers will magically appear at both The Chapel Hills Mall and Citadel Mall this season. Times and dates are available on the malls’ websites. Santa will also be greeting Colorado Springs residents on Saturdays and Sundays in the Welcome Center in Old Colorado City.
