There are so many fun things to do this holiday season in and around Boise! In today’s article, we are going to go over some of our favorites that will have you and the family having a great time, and for little to no money to boot! Let’s get into the holiday spirit and start celebrating the holiday season.

Winter Wonderland At Indian Creek

Not to be outdone, the party continues at Indian Creek Plaza in downtown Caldwell. The river is delightfully lit up with over a million (yes, a million!) twinkling Christmas lights and it is truly a sight to see. There will be a bunch of fun activities the whole family will love like ice skating, Santa visits, shopping from local vendors and small businesses around the valley and so much more.

Christmas At The Village

We can’t let Boise and Caldwell have all the fun! The Village at Meridian is a fun place to spend an afternoon no matter what time of year, but in the winter it is especially magical. They really pull out all of the stops when it comes to holiday decorations as well. While there you can also enjoy ice skating, photos with Santa, and a huge Christmas tree decorated with a new theme each year.

Scentsy Commons Holiday Lights

Get ready to experience one of the most popular and fun (and free!) holiday events of the season: The Scentsy Holiday Lights Display. They painstakingly wrap over 450 trees in dazzling lights and include a 250 foot long tunnel that just radiates holiday fun. While you are there enjoying the lights, you can expect to see carolers and other holiday themed music, free refreshments like coffee, cider, and hot cocoa, and much more! All on deck for the whole family at no charge.
