The holidays are almost here…time to get in the spirit! Brookside is here to help, with the annual Holiday Season Opener happening all weekend.

The festivities start tonight, November 14 at 5:30, with live music, a tree lighting ceremony, treats and a special visit from Santa. The Brookside website and poster does not indicate the location; however, in the past it’s been held at the grassy area on 63rd St just east of Brookside Blvd near the bus stop. (Just look for all the people!) All weekend, the Brookside shops along and around 63rd St will offer special deals, new holiday products, giveaways and food and drink specials at the restaurants. When you visit the Brookside Holiday Season Opener, you are supporting our locally owned businesses that make Brookside the special place it is. Get ready to enjoy some holiday cheer with your friends and neighbors this weekend in Brookside!
