Put some razzle dazzle in your holidays with the IMC’s annual Christmas spectacular.

Shop under a canopy of lights, see a live animal Nativity, ride the alpine slide, sing carols by candlelight, enjoy German food (and beer and gluhwein, if you’re of age), take selfies with Santa, and enjoy a sacred music festival and kids’ activities. Admission is free.

In addition, he can be seen on several TV series. Tickets are $25 and up.
