The holiday season is finally here! There’s a chill in the air, the leaves are falling…and if you’re lucky, you’ll be able to have the perfect dusting of snow for your seasonal celebrations. There’s nothing that quite compares to the comfort of the holidays in the gorgeous Phoenix Valley — and we’re here to help you get the most out of your experience all season long.
Read on to learn more about the top spots and hidden gems we’re visiting to have a very merry holiday season!
Things to do in winter in Phoenix Valley
There are plenty of things to do to celebrate the change of season in the greater Phoenix Valley. Here are a few of the top ways we’re staying festive all season long!
Get Your Gift On at the Desert Ridge Marketplace
Your gift list probably feels like it’s never-ending…which is why we want to encourage you to shop local and tick it off at the Desert Ridge Marketplace! This collection of shops off of Tatum Boulevard is arranged al fresco for a more relaxing shopping experience, giving you access to some of the top brands and artisans in the Phoenix area.
Soak in the sights and the holiday lights that adorn every window box, and shop the sales and deals you’ve been looking for. (We promise – they’re almost as good as what we saw on Black Friday!)
Grab a Hot Drink at Cortado Coffee Roastery
Need a perky pick-me-up? Swing by Cortado Coffee Roastery and lose yourself in the sounds and smells of community coffee shop comfort. This special spot keeps it classic, sticking to the crowd favorites: lattes, mochas, cold brews, and macchiatos. If you’re a tea lover, you’ll enjoy the range of choices they offer, such as chai, matcha, and regular brewed teas, or you can branch out and sip on a freshly-made Italian soda.
There’s no wrong way to sip during the most special season of the year!
Feeling hungry? Ask about the fresh-baked bagel sandwiches, protein waffles, or avocado toast options – piled high with delicious toppings like honey, eggs, radish and chilis.
Grab Last-Minute Decor at At Home
Your house is probably decorated for whatever season you celebrate. However, we believe that you can never truly be done getting into the holiday spirit! Here are a few quick finds you can grab at At Home to turn your home into a winter wonderland:
- Candles: These are one of the easiest investments you can make to help set the atmosphere and tie your whole place together.
- Faux Arrangements: Depending on what these are made of, they can be especially handy for weather-hardy exterior decor.
- Pillows: Throw pillows are a quick way to dress up the room without putting a heavy dent in your wallet.
- Blankets: You can never be too cozy, especially during a chilly desert winter! Grab one (or three)–we won’t tell.
If you’re looking to dress the house up without committing to a certain holiday or color scheme, we recommend investing in some interior lighting options to get you into a merry mood. This looks different for everyone, so go with whatever makes your heart happy!
